** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-driver-nv
  
- When editing a text field in a web application, e.g. this window on launchpad 
or a message in gmail and one moves the cursor with the keyboard, a cursor is 
drawn between every character and only disappears after several seconds. This 
does not happen in firefox on windows or on my Powerbook running Dapper PPC. 
I'm not sure whether this is a firefox problem or Xorg's graphics rendering. 
This machine has an on-board video adapter and I don't think hardware 
acceleration supported by Linux on  this adapter (although I'm not sure how to 
check). Device Manager says:
