Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

I can reproduce this bug multiple times, it just takes time.
I'm running Lucid Lynx LTS ubuntu 32-bit.
I had my desktop effects set on Normal for a week or two...
Within the past few days, when Firefox is running, my title bar will vanish.
It will remain gone until I log out, restart, etc. Or if I change my desktop effects to None.
Hardware drivers: No proprietary drivers found.
ATi Raedeon xpress 200 onboard video
I still have access to Applications, Places, System.
If I open a terminal through applications, it will not allow me to type in it. However, I can copy/paste. PS2 keyboard, usb mouse.
Having desktop effects on None, I haven't come across the bug yet.
Any help would be appreciated, I can answer any question.

(Following step 2 in the guidelines...)

We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to review all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.

Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid) reached end-of-life on May 9, 2013.

Do you still see a problem related to the one that you reported in a currently supported version of Ubuntu? Please let us know if you do and in which version of Ubuntu otherwise this report can be left to expire in approximately 60 days time.

Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.
