Know that this solution is for.... Intel i915 onboard chip

The OP suggests creating a file named 20-intel.conf in the directory /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d

If you were to do this from the terminal; you could vi a new file, most likely needing sudo to do so...

Code:
sudo vi /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf

then insert (press i ) and paste (right click) the following into that screen...

Code:
Section "Device"

   Identifier  "Intel Graphics"

   Driver      "intel"

   Option      "AccelMethod"  "sna"

   Option      "TearFree"    "true"

   Option      "DRI"    "3"

EndSection

then press... ESC followed by :wq the :wq will write the file -- the :wq will display at the lower left corner - if in line with the text you need to delete the :wq and ESC prior..

then as instructed ... reboot..

Again, this is for the i915 chip - the instruction may not work for you if not the same, though it may or it may not display all..
* I would create a backup as a safety line...
And know how to access the TTY if you boot to blank screen then it'll be command lines to undo...

Thank you for your reply, firenice03!

Unfortunatey, I don't have the same chip. According to the program "Lite System Report" I have:

Explanation: VGA compatible controller
Product: Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller
Company: Intel Corporation

and

Explanation: 3D controller
Product: GF117M [GeForce 610M/710M/810M/820M / GT 620M/625M/630M/720M]
Company: NVIDIA Corporation

What can I do? That line is very annoying. I also have it when scrolling in a pdf file not just in my browser window.
