Rendering problem...

Hi,

Sorry to mither, but from asking around on questions@ it seems like there are a few people with the same problem.

After updating to the latest version (built with clang) I have a rendering problem with Chromium.

On some websites (but not all) the page appears to load, rendering for a moment, before disappearing to a blank white page with nothing visible. This happens consistently on for example www.theguardian.com, but never on for example www.freebsd.org (presumably a simpler page).

I have this sysctl set:
kern.ipc.shm_allow_removed: 1

(without it, nothing renders).

I've rebuilt it and all dependencies from scratch, taken out all my extensions. The problem still remains. I haven't yet tried rebuilding with gcc instead of clang (although I'm going to give that a go shortly.

This is on a Thinkpad X60 using the Intel graphics driver on 9.2-R with the GENERIC kernel.

Do you have any ideas what the problem is and what might be needed to fix it? (Trying to switch to Firefox, but it's unbearable).

Thanks for your help.




Peter Harrison.
