[Bug 438868]

 

I have noticed that the address bar failure often seems linked to
another error I've seen -- sub-menus don't work at all. For example, if
I pull up the bookmark menu I can select a top level bookmark, but if I
try to view a folder the bookmarks menu goes away. Same for the main
Firefox 4 menu.

I've been bothered by the two errors (no awesome bar suggestions, no
sub-menus) fairly often, but I have not considered checking to see if
they are linked until just now.

I'm running Minefield on Ubuntu 10.10, Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64;
rv:2.0b9pre) Gecko/20110109 Firefox/4.0b9pre right now, switching to a
new version after I finish this reply. I've seen this issue with more
than one version, but I don't know when it started.

I have Compiz installed. I don't think every ten-second screen lock
causes the issue.

Thank you for this tidbit, I had been restarting Firefox to solve the
problem. I tried this right now and it work -- I had non-functioning
menus and non-functioning awesome bar and switching desktops fixed both
problems.
