Not really sure if this is a driver issue or something else. I have installed XFCE on a older mini laptop. I’ll start by saying this laptop runs MX Linux KDE just fine with bigger ram usage 600+ on start up vs 500+ for XFCE. General usage is also heavier for MX over time.
The problem is the when using a browers, be it Firefox, Midori or Vivaldi the system stutters and sometimes locks up when transitioning video from a box view to full screen. Loading images also stutters.
I checked the drivers for graphics (Radeon HD8180 )and nothing really stands out. Not proprietary but I doubt there’s a choice as its one of those shared memory propositions.
This really feels like an optimisation issue but I’m no guru with XFCE. I have looked around but found no real solution. If anyone has had a similar experience or has some suggestions that would be welcome.
