I see this bug on Fedora 14 with latest (3.6) packages. It's not (just) caused by sleep/hibernate -- I just saw it on a machine that never sleeps.
Whenever this bug is happening, it reliably causes: - Characters I type into the 'Lookup forecast by "City, St"' box at weather.gov - Whenever I type one or two characters into the subject field when composing a message in gmail, they get highlighted. To continue typing without losing those characters, I have to hit the right arrow or otherwise deselect them. - The awesomebar isn't awesome. That is, it just acts like a plain text box and doesn't pop up any hints. The most recent time it triggered, I fixed it by defocusing Firefox and then refocusing it. Restarting Firefox always fixes it for awhile. I have no idea how to trigger it in the first place, though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/583122 Title: firefox occasionally highlights contents of form fields while typing thereby overwriting previously entered keystrokes -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
