Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

While in fullscreen mode, having numerous tabs opened, the Firefox topside flickers/trembles. This happens all the time I tried it on the following config: Ubuntu Hardy Heron Beta (at the time of writing is up-to-date), FIrefox 3 Beta 4, compiz enabled (extra effects); I haven't tried until now without compiz but I just don't see the point since I plan on using compiz all the time. Just tell me anything else that you might need to track down this annoying bug - it is my first time since '97 that I'm using smth else than SuSE&KDE, so I'm not that used to this environment.

Hi, just need a bit more info here.
Are you using wobbly windows? This would be the most obvious cause. If its not, then it'd probably be a good idea to see what *would* happen without Compiz.
Also, what version of Compiz are you using?

No wobbly windows. I'm not sure about the compiz version at the time of this
occurence - anyway with the same compiz effects now but with firefox 3 beta 5
everything is just fine in fullscreen mode. Thanks anyway.
