I don't see any problems on that. But it's not clear to me exactly what type of thing to look for. Firefox with the later radeon drivers occasionally bolds and blurs a line of text that has already been rendered (maybe just re-rendering it with an off-by-one error). These are always unrelated to the current line of text being edited. That seemed to be something to do with the driver, and still happened with the KMS version. ...Until last night, when I installed the new cairo.

That's the same thing I've seen, but only on Radeon cards.
