Thank you Chris ... I will definitely look at the reporting guidelines before I report any more bugs. With respect to the browser, I plainly stated that I'm strictly running a ROM LiveCD system and there is no other browser to try ... As far as I know, Mint 13 Mate only has Firefox installed. Also, I did not report this as a Firefox bug ... I only noted that Firefox was the browser I was using when I found the problem. I am only slightly experienced with Mint/Ubuntu Linux and I had no idea where the problem lurks ... I just know that what I saw was not correct and I did a lengthy search to see if it was already reported. I didn't find any other reports and so I thought I should report it.
Thank you for all the work you folks are doing to create a great OS. I will try very hard to keep from complicating your work ... I know what a pain it must be. Blessings in abundance, all the best, & ENJOY!

Esteemed Ubuntu/Linux Mint Developers and Gurus: ========================================= LM13 Mate 32 bit LiveDVD running from LOCKED SD card (NO HARD DRIVE) Browser: Firefox 12.0 for Linux Mint (mint - 1.0) I'm having some subtle display problems with the new Mint 13 (Mate 32 bit) LiveDVD (Read-Only) system I am trying to use. Note that these problems do NOT occur in Mint 8 or Mint 10 (both Gnome 32 bit), which are the only other Mint systems that I use. My System: ================= HP/(Compaq) dx2400 Intel Core 2 Duo 2 GB memory Graphics Integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3100 Resolution: 1920 x 1080 Refresh: 60 Hz Normal Widescreen Memory with Google Maps running approx 3/4 screen, with corrupted blocks: mint@mint ~ $ free total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 2052312 1400716 651596 0 138888 955796 -/+ buffers/cache: 306032 1746280 Swap: 0 0 0 I have noticed the intermittent problem repeatedly in Google Satellite Maps, which I use extremely often. I believe that Google Maps writes windows of 'picture blocks' of underlying satellite pictures, and overlay picture blocks of map labels. Frequently, one or a few blocks are corrupted(?) or scrambled(?). Once a block is corrupted it tends to stay corrupted even if I drag it out of view of the window and then drag it back in; or if I change the resolution up or down and then change it back to the previous setting. Occasionally the corrupted block gets 'repaired', but I can't seem to do that consistently, and occasionally MORE blocks get corrupted. I have had as many as 4 blocks get corrupted, with three of them adjacent blocks and 1 non-adjacent. I have noticed the problem in BOTH layers, but most often in the satellite pictures layer. I have attached screen dumps showing good images and corrupted images in both layers. I have not tested this anomaly in any other applications ... as I said, I am deciding whether or not to use Mint 13, and as much as I like some of the new features of 13, this problem is a deal-breaker. Thank you for any and all comments, suggestions, and assistance. Blessings in abundance, all the best, & ENJOY!
