xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.10.0-3.fc15.x86_64
mesa-dri-drivers-7.10-0.29.fc15.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.svobodni.cz/ using Firefox
2. Drag the scrollbar down slowly.
  
Actual results:
image corruption as in the screenshot

There are two video cards in this machine. I am using:
VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc RV770 [Radeon HD 4850] [1002:9442]
The other video card is not in use.

Comment 7 Dave Airlie 2011-03-15 23:38:24 UTC 
Michal,

can you get it at the default firefox zoom level (Ctrl+0) 

or does it only happen if you zoom in?
