I don't think so. Epiphany is based on WebKit these days. And because I
can trigger the bug in EOG (Eye of GNOME) it doesn't look like a browser
problem for me at all.

Perhaps it is a problem of GTK together with nvidia 275.09.07. I tried
feh (a simple X11 image viewer that doesn't use GTK or Qt) and it works
fine without flickering, artifacts or something else strange.


I think you're right. I've downloaded and opened the file with some
image viewers: geeqie / fotoxx / gimp are fine, but gthumb froze
(eventually freezing xorg with it).

Not all viewers trigger the bug, that's right. There surely is a small difference in the way the image is shown.

By the way, opening other images, even bigger than yours, on gthumb
worked without a glitch. It seems that there is something related
specifically to that image involved in the freezing.

As I wrote in my first post: it's the width of 2047px. You could take every picture with that width. The effect gets stronger with more height.

nvidia 275.09.07-1
nvidia-utils 275.09.07-1

geeqie 1.0-5
fotoxx 11.06.1-1
gimp 2.6.11-5

GeForce 8600 GT

nvidia 275.09.07 (x86_64) on GeForce 8600 GT here. I heard that older versions of the nvidia driver should be fine, but had no time to test it myself.
