Description Anthony Ettinger 2005-10-29 17:29:15 UTC
When I increase/decrease fontsize, firefox freezes up. Happened after I applied
a scrollwheel patch to the kernel for the "belkin kvm fix".

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-66958-start-75.html

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Ctrl+Scrollwheel
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Font increases or decreases 1 or 2 sizes, then freezes.

Expected Results:  
should be smooth without freezing.

latest Firefox

I'm sorry, we can't really support user-patched kernels. [1] Reopen if you are
able to reproduce without that patch and with a supported kernel.
