Macbook Pro Unibody (Late 2008) Graphic Glitches
Weird graphic glitches on a 15" Late-2008 Unibody MBP (first of the Unibody range). Several observations to reproduce the glitch: - Happens only on battery mode, regardless of which graphics card (9400M or 9600M GT) - Happens on a freshly-installed, fully updated, SMC-resetted system with 10.5.8 - Only happens when you scroll very quickly (i.e. using the two-finger scroll on the touchpad) on a long list (refer to next point) - Drop down list/menu has to be extensively long that requires at least two or three screen's worth of real estate. An example would be the 'Fonts' folder (/Library/Fonts), drop this into the dock as a stack and view it as a list. - Reported to happen occasionally with the Spotlight search menu.
