Yes, all the time on i686 Thinkpad T60 with:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

Maybe GPU or something else in my graphics stack is causing this. Running
XFCE on this old machine. Like said, gimp and firefox don't have any problems
displaying the images but they are too slow for casual photo browsing.

I would like to debug this but don't have any idea where to begin.
