Scrolling issue in Leopard cured with PRAM reset|(0)

Having got a shiny new MacBook Pro to work on at my new workplace I’ve had a couple of strange problems with Leopard. The main issue was that when scrolling the graphics was suffering what appeared to be a strange redraw problem when scrolling. After googling I found this post:“Distorted graphics in Leopard when scrolling”.

Fortunately for me: resetting the PRAM has worked and the flickering issue has gone for now.
