** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: firefox, gedit
  
  Horizontal lines appears arbitrarily during the rendering of text, they
  can be made to disappear by temporary by rerendering of the text. I have
  so far sighted these rendering artifacts in Firefox's tab-bar and
  possibly on the search bar(screenshots provided below) as well as in the
  general edited text of gedit(3rd screenshot). I suspect it may be a
  bigger problem with X.org, Gnome or possible the graphics card drivers.
  
  I am running on a 5 years old Dell Inspiron 5100 laptop with Radeon
  Mobility 7500(details in dmesg.log provided in link below)
