web form check box has squiggly line

[Jay Daniels]

In hardy I had no problem until I installed the ati x1400 mobile radion
driver.  Then I noticed the squiggly lines under the check boxes on html
forms.  Turn off visual affect, same problem.

Then I installed Jaunty and then again Karmic.  Currently running 9.10.
Jaunty had visual effects turn on out of the box on my T-60 so there was
no need to download ati drivers to get games like alien arena working.
However, even in Karmic and turning off visual effects, those squiggly
lines in web page check box forms still exist.

I suspect it's a theme problem or perhaps even a memory leak or
javascript problem.

Anyone else notice this?  I check ati mobile radeon x1400 drivers on
manufacturer site and it seems the version is the same as when I used
hardy and may never be updated again.

Note:  I can hover the mouse over the check box in firefox and the
squiggly line will go away.  The squiggly lines appear only in website
form check boxes on all sites including gmail.
