Confirming since I've experienced this bug too. I suspect this may be a duplicate of bug 274064 just with different symptoms. Namely, I think both are caused by the way Firefox and its libraries move around when version changes occur. |

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
I Have just updated my system as at 26 Sept 2008 at 0800 GMT.
I cannot give you a screen shot of the about box because of the problem that has arisen.
The problem is that the 'about' dialogue and the 'bookmarks/organise' and other dialogues are opening as a small orange and white rectangle. When resized the boxes do not contain any information. This seems to be happening to any and all firefox dialogue boxes.
Have just tried running profile manager and a new inatance of firefox appears with a micro dialogue box - which is empty when resized.
I have attached 2 screenshots - screenshot-1 is the dialogue box as it first appears and screenshot-2 is after I have resized the dialogue box.
My system is Xbuntu 8.04 and is updated daily.
desktop is Gnome 2.22.03
Gnome apt reports the following:
firefox-3.0 version 3.0.3+build1-nobinonly-Oububtu0.8.04.1

I just talked to Alexander from Mozilla Team, and he said bugs that show up from an update are the reason it tells you to restart the browser, so such bugs are Invalid. So I'm marking this Invalid. |
