Steps to reproduce:

Trying to fire the mousemove event in Firefox 15.01 on Ubuntu 12.04. The windows version works fine. Specifically: http://itoning.com/colorscreen/screen/


Actual results:

The mousemove event fires only sporadically, way less than is to be expected. Other browsers on the same machine are capable of completing the event 'instantly'.


Expected results:

The event should fire far more often.
