I am having a problem with Google Chrome on Ubuntu 12.10 64.
On about 20-30% of web sites the page comes up and starts "flickering". It seems like there is a different or partial rendering of the page in a different buffer and several times per second the page swaps between the two screen buffers, causing a kind of epileptic flashing of different images.
I can also not scroll the page when it is in this flickering state, any attempt to scroll causes the page to go to the top again on the next flicker.
I am using the fglrx driver if that means something:
$ fglrxinfo
display: :0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series
OpenGL version string: 4.2.12002 Compatibility Profile Context 8.961
Chrome version is:
Google Chrome 25.0.1364.172 (Official Build 187217)
Any ideas?
