Hello !
Since this bug was reported a while ago, I would like to add a couple of
words ...
- It persists in Precise as well. Generally the common denominator in both
my machines (running Oneiric and Precise) is NVidia video card with
proprietary drivers.
- I'm not sure, anymore, that Firefox is the address. Looks like it is
something in the video path (Compiz ?), because since the bug was reported,
similar behavior was observed with GEdit, gnome-terminal, xterm ... It all
might be qualified as the graphical output 'misses' the window. Upon window
resize / movement / minimizing / maximizing the problem becomes fixed ...
for a while.
