A couple of other tests (with the WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE
variable unset):

- Run 'surf' or 'yelp' from a terminal and check if there are error
  messages.

- Run the MiniBrowser (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/webkit2gtk-4.1/MiniBrowser)
  and open 'about:gpu'. If you don't see any output try to see if you
  can copy and paste the (invisible) contents of the page (it's text).

- Check if all builds of the MiniBrowser have the same problem. You
  can find them in /usr/lib/*/webkit*/MiniBrowser

Thanks!
