Details

When I go to certain pages and try to scroll the page, some elements stay drawn on the screen and make annoying trails.
I use Xorg 7.2, NVIDIA 1.0.9755, and kernel 2.6.21.1, and have an Integrated GF7300 Go GPU.

To reproduce this bug:
Go to http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gobject/index.html
Scroll down the page and then up.

How to fix it:
Don't use Composite, or use a different browser. I haven't been able to find another working solution. Modifying the scrolling options doesn't help in Firefox.
