Title:
Firefox plugin overwrites root window
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: firefox
ubuntu 10.10, i386
xorg: 7.5+6ubuntu3
nvidia driver: 260.19.06-0ubuntu1
firefox 3.6.15+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.10.1
metacity 2.30.2-0ubuntu1
After running flash content in the browser, the last frame shown
remains in some part of the graphics buffer, and bleeds through into
black pixels of any window moved on top of it. (ie, a semi-black
background image shows the last flash frame only in the black area,
and a terminal moved over the area shows the last frame everywhere
except the white of the characters).
I had originally assumed this was getting drawn onto the X root
window, but the effect is not stored in screencaptures with either
gimp or xvidcap. Killing firefox/plugin-container does not make the
effect go away. Restarting metacity does remove it.
I don't know if this is a bug in the flash plugin or plugin container
(presumably related to hardware acceleration/DRI), or somewhere else
in the X stack. Does anyone have suggestions for more useful
diagnostics?
