I didn’t find anything relevant, although the advice of setting this
chrome://flags/
Vulcain: enabled
has a bit improved the worst part where large areas where blinking/swaping in/out on the page, like when one messes with the css ,and move the cursor around with effects.
What’s left:
While typing in a text area in Chrome, the characters are :
- Displayed for a few tenth of second
- Seemingly erased but actually still there, it’s like the widget got back in time for a full second or 1,5s
- Then they get displayed again for good.
So when typing countinuously (without looking at the screen because it’s so disturbing, so just writing xxxxxxxxx one x at a time), the cursor is moving back and forth , back an forth. 2 forward for one backward.
Also when I select and delete a word, highlight might not be shown but it’s effective, and the delete has also the jump back in time.
I’m thinking of an issue with the rendering buffern not sync properly or a similar glitch. So tiring.
For time it happens. I was up-to-date of the packages two days ago (March 26th)
Thanks for any help!
