Bug Description

I'm having sometimes graphic corruption when I'm using the firefox omnibar, but this don't happen all the time, I even discovered that opening a terminal makes this disappear (whas trying to take a screenshot with scrot, had to go with gnome screenshot tool).

It happened elsewhere (not only in Firefox, Libreoffice to name it) but wasn't able to reproduce it there.

This happens on my eeepc netbook, using this :

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller (integrated gpu from Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N450 @ 1.66GHz).

Omnibar is a third party add-on for Firefox which Mint cannot provide support with. You should report the issue to the author of the add-on.

If you however experience similar issues with other software while using Mint and are able to reproduce it, please open a new bug report.

Sorry for the confusion but, I meant Awesome bar, the basic address bar from Firefox, I'm not using any extension. It happens in a very sparse installation of Linux Mint, I just installed it yesterday.

As I wrote in the first comment I'm using a eeePC 1005PX, that is using an Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N450, and for the graphics, it's the integrated GPU that is used, lspci reports it as « 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller » aka Intel GMA3150.

Tried to update graphic stack using the xorg-edgers ppa, but issue still appears. And it doen't come from my computer, on Fedora it works without any problem.

What should I provide more as the status is Incomplete ?
