@Sam: Any word on this re: firefox/thunderbird menus not appearing of disappearing after workspace switching? It's been 4 months since the first report on this issue without any resolution or workaround, and it's a constant irritation. I appreciate that most of the work here is voluntary contributed time -- and I'm happy to debug / code / contribute as well (as I'm very motivated to see this fixed) -- but communication is obviously essential for community-driven software and there's been very little feedback re: who's taken ownership of this issue, what they've tried and discovered, what should be tried next, and so forth. I'd love to help, but don't want to duplicate effort, and a little guidance on where to start would be most helpful. I'd hate to see this issue persist into 12.04, especially since it will be a LTS release.
Thanks, --Doug -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/872207 Title: When Firefox is running in Unity, drop-down menus sometime close when opened Status in Compiz: Confirmed Status in Unity Distro Priority: Fix Committed Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This is something which used to happen regularly though not always (I switched to using fallback mode for a while because of it). Basically, drop-down menus in Firefox such as RSS feeds (or in Natty without the global menu the normal application menus were affected too) are simply not shown when clicked on. Context menus also fail to appear. This often disappeared for no apparent reason after I had used Firefox for a while. I haven't seen it for a while, but it has just re-appeared, possibly because I started Unity as "unity --replace" since I am currently testing an application's behaviour with different window managers. I'm sorry if this information is a bit threadbare. Please let me know if I can provide any additional helpful information.
