Please post which extensions you have installed. Also provide us with
info which graphic chip you are using and which driver you are
running.

Consider to attach output of:

 lspci -vv

and the files:
  /etc/X11/xorg.conf
  /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Raedon X1200 worked fine in 7.0.4 Unbutu and 8.04 lts original install
Auto update to proprietary driver through software update

[wpersin (wpersin003)]

updated to latest drivers for ati card although they do not list the X1200 the next series up drivers in downloading both packages through synaptics package manager and installing all firefox issues went away and screen is stable without the rasp from top right to bottom left and blinking of screen has disapeared when going through the menu bar.

[wpersin (wpersin003)]

Rasp reappears with the top header in firefox not turned on (brown header bar minimise and size toggle and close button)
Only stable when this top header bar is in place does not always load top header bar for some strange reason.

[wpersin (wpersin003)]

Top header bar (brown in firefox with minimise , fullscreen and close) if this bar does not load then there is a rasp diagonally when toggling menu bars, file, edit, view, history ,bookmarks, tools and help or moving from website to wesite.
