Package: thunderbird
Version: 1:52.9.1-1
Severity: grave

Launching thunderbird, my display would get half-frozen : only the mouse
pointer was still moving, and changing (arrow, hand, etc) when it
hovered over different things. I think I could still move windows
around, because I could see it change when I take a window further (a
hand), and then the places where it turned into arrows to resize a
window border ( ->| ) seemed to correspond. I also could hear the sound
event of an incoming mail. But I didn't see the window actually moving,
I couldn't see when I click on a background icon, nor did panels spring
out when I moved the pointer to the side of the screen.

It was the only program showing the problem ; I had to go to the
console and restart lxdm to launch a new session!

I'm using the past tense : installing lightning made things work again.
I had the idea to install it because I tried to get as much information
as I could, tried to understand what could make it fail that didn't
concern firefox...

It also happened with 1:60.0~b10-1.

I hope that will help understand the issue...

well, most of such problems are provoked by the AddOns and sometimes
also due new package versions in unstable that will remain just for a
few time and get away with newer versions or other packages which are
also updated. Tracking down is really difficult and mostly the time not
really worth which is needed to resolve the real underlying issue as the
issue is really difficult to adjust.

Must of such reports are "solved" by just waiting a few days.

I will close this report now.

Regards
Carsten
