I have just replaced the video card driver (nv) with nvidia driver by running NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.05.pkg1.run provided by the vendor.
After upgrading, the overall display effect are enhanced as shown by fast web page scrolling response. However, the Chinese characters are occasionally displayed in a jagged and unclear manner. There was no such problem with the nv driver shipped with fedora 9. But I think it might be a rendering problem with Firefox as Chinese characters are displayed correctly before and after upgrading the video card driver. Could anybody give any suggestion on how to fix it? 

BTW, Fedora 9 32bit is running on my Dell Inspiron 1520.
