[webkit-dev] ［GTK］Scroll deficiency

[Brent Fulgham]

Xiong,

I'm sorry you are encountering the problem, but I must admit I am glad  
someone else is seeing this issue as now we can pool our efforts to  
resolve it.

Since you are using directfb stuff, and I am on top of Windows, it  
seems the culprit is somewhere in the Cairo logic.  Perhaps the dirty  
regions are not being computed properly (I have encountered a few  
places where the coordinate systems in Cairo and Windows don't agree).

However, the kludge of setting a background color (does this work for  
you as well?) does not fit into the 'bad coordinate' theory, as I  
don't see how the presence of a background color in the rendering  
instructions would affect this.

The fact that it does not happen for me in Debug builds makes me  
wonder if maybe there is some kind of improper initialization or  
buffer overrun that is involved.

-Brent
