is there flash on that site? Try to disable/uninstall flash if thats
the case. Also try to disable your extensions that might cause wierd
issues too.

Probably you catched the issue.
That newspaper site has a "News rolling bar" which uses Adobe Flash
Player.
This bar is the first thing appearing on the page when accessing.
Disabling flash seems to solve the problem.

Of course I didnt made many tests because to check I have to reboot each
time...

thanks. assigning to appropriate package. consider to try the free flash solutions gnash or swfdec-mozilla. even though they dont render everything, they might be more stable.

May you please test with flash 10 and see if it's still an issue with it? the page looks fine for me with that version from backports? thanks in advance.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.
