Enlightening appendix to my previous posting to the galeon-devel list
(and sorry i lost the thread):

I discovered anyother app, besides the mozilla based browsers, that shows t=
he same=20
'scrolling-slow-as-hell' effect after upgrade to Debian sid: eog (eye of gn=
ome).
Scrolling an image horizontally is totally slow, even with only a 20 KB pic=
 !
So this shouldn't be anyhow related to RAM, nor to Java or macromedia...
Perhaps gtk related ? I looked up the gtk-demo, and actually found this eff=
ect
also in the 'Pickers --> pick a file' scrollbars (but not in the others!).

Or some x library (font rendering?) using some graphic chip extensions by=20
default that aren't available ? This is an old matrox card.
I've no clue....where could i ask ?

With kind regards,

Michael
