Seems you've got an issue between X and firefox3; at least there's
a note in the firefox3 release notes which desribes similar effects:

Oh, but by the way, it's not an nvidia/nv issue; I've got the exactly
same issues with radeonhd... Luckily, I do not depend that much on
web browsers, let alone firefox3.
The issue of X with firefox is well known and be aured I'm aware of that. This issue I complained about is with nearly every client I use under X - and that includes Firefox. This 'issue' renders a bunch of FreeBSD boxes around here unusable, only those with non-G80 derived graphics boards seem to be not infected by the problem, but every box with FreeBSD (mostly 7.0/7.1).

Ah, that explains why I'm having only the usual firefox issue,
obviously my laptop's "Quadro NVS 140M" is not a G80-derived
chip (nautilus, gimp, gnumeric do wirk fine without black bars).
The first mails read as if all nvidia boards were affected.

Christoph


My box at home has an older NV6800GT and I do not have this special issue, but instead I do have another well known issue of box-freezing. This also happens with 'nv'. Since FreeBSD 7.0 this freezing occurs more frequent than in FBSD 6, but in the meanwhile thenv-driver changed several times. It is a horror :-(

Oliver
