I'm checking on that "update support for video card" claim. I don't see
any details about it on the Mozilla site (in fact, there are NO patch
details on the Mozilla site). It's worth a try - pity there is no 1.0.1
for Suns! (I am now looking into compiling it.)
I have an ultra 5 myself and I've seen this problem, but only
intermittently, even for a given URL. Do you have an URL that does it each
and every time?
