Browser glitching help

🔰 Beginner

Hi everyone,

I hope you’re all doing well.

It has been about 2–3 days since I permanently switched to Linux.

My primary use case is console emulation, specifically , (Eden), and RPCS3

The main reason for moving from Tiny11 was to get better compatibility with RPCS3 and Eden. On Windows, RPCS3 would not launch, and Eden required Vulkan support, which my GPU does not provide properly or support on Windows.

For reference, my system specs are:

Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300

AMD Radeon HD 7570 (1GB DDR5)

128 GB SSD

6GB RAM

Dell OptiPlex 755

Currently, I only have the Brave browser installed. However, I’m experiencing significant graphical issues while browsing such as artifacts, flickering, and stuttering during scrolling which makes it very uncomfortable to use.

Additionally, I am facing connectivity issues:

My USB Wi-Fi adapter is not detecting any networks

Bluetooth is not functioning at all which use to work on windows.

As a workaround, I am using USB tethering from my phone for internet access

Aside from these problems, the overall experience with Zorin OS has been excellent.

I would really appreciate any guidance on:

Fixing the browser rendering issues (artifacts/flickering)

Getting the USB Wi-Fi adapter and Bluetooth working properly

I also tried chromium and chrome, but both performed worse than Brave, so I removed them from my device.

So any help would be very appreciated
