Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 265 by gareth.m...@pobox.com: Scrambled Firefox windows with CSS background image http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=265 (I am not at all certain that this really is an xmonad problem. But there are some signs that it may be, and I'm certain that if I report this to the FF guys the immediate response will be "That's because you're using a weirdo window manager" unless I can provide some evidence that it's not. I haven't seen similar behaviour from any application other than Firefox.) System: xmonad 0.7; x.org 7.3.2 (server 1.4.2); FreeBSD 6.2; x86. Repro steps: 1. Run Firefox 3.0.4 on FreeBSD 6.2 (other versions of FF3 have failed in the same way; I think FF2 never did). 2. Point Firefox at the HTML file attached as "broken.html". 3. Move the mouse pointer in and out of the FF window so that it gains and loses focus. Expected result: a boring, almost content-free page with a background image; no untoward behaviour on gaining and losing focus. Actual result: at step 2 or 3, instead of the expected background image, my browser window gets filled with junk that usually comes from elsewhere in the window. This is not perfectly consistent: occasionally it's fine. The misbehaviour may happen (a) immediately on loading the page, (b) about a second after that, (c) on moving the mouse out of the browser window, (d) on moving the mouse into the browser window, and/or (e) on switching workspaces. The junk sometimes comes from another window, or (when switching workspaces) from content in the previous workspace. A typical example of how one of these windows looks after a bit of mouse-jiggling is attached as broken.png . This doesn't happen to all Firefox windows; only ones whose content has a CSS background image. (This is of course evidence of a Firefox rather than an xmonad problem.)
