Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox-3.5
I am connecting to my home machine running Ubuntu 9.10 (with latest
updates) from a Windows XP machine, using an SSH tunnel and VNC to view
a desktop window. I am using vnc4server as the vnc server on my Ubuntu
machine.
With this setup, Firefox is failing to display form elements of webpages
properly. The outlines of buttons, checkboxes, text input areas, and
select boxes are not drawn. Also missing is the scroll bars, tab
outlines, toolbar button outlines, toolbar separators, menu separators
and outlines, and address bar "down" arrow in the main Firefox window.
Using the machine locally, Firefox works fine. Also, Galeon 2.0.7 and
Epiphany 2.28.0 are working correctly through the SSH/VNC setup.
