[Bug 382437] Re: Page slowly refreshes when set in Portrait

[Bryce Harrington]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
  
  I installed Nouveau driver to enable monitor in Portrait position for
  working with Open Office and reading Emails.
  
  I go to System> Preference? Display
  
  Rotation: Normal
  
  When i set it to 'Left' and apply my monitor is adjusted to portrait
  mode - Great!
  
  However, page keeps refreshing regularly seen as a wave from right to left. Its slow and annoying. This happens everytime i change workspace or execute anything which changes the page. If i'm in xchat it happens everytime i type or someone else types and hits 'enter'
  Also, i opened an avi and it crashes. Not sure whether movies should work in portrait mode or not, and i wouldn't normally look at a movie in Portrait, for that i'd return to Landscape mode, but i checked just to see out of curiosity. But certainly for Open Office to be workable in Portrait mode smooth graphics are required.
