I'm a recent Ubuntu convert from the Windows side and my preferred browser is Opera 12. The problem I've come across is that the mouse wheel scrolling is agonizingly slow on my system, both with Opera's smooth scrolling feature turned off and on. Is there anyway to get the scrolling back to the buttery smoothness I'm used to on my Windows install?

Possibly something to do with video drivers. Linux Mint 13 KDE here (x64), and the problem appeared for me after installing the proprietary AMD video drivers. 1.5 second whole-page reflow after every mouse wheel tick makes for a bad experience. – user95784 Oct 10 '12 at 14:42
