[Bug 438868] Re: Numerous applications have focus issues after emerging from a screensaver or suspend

 

Ubuntu 10.10 with a fire fox 4.0 install today. Installed via:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

When Firefox is running for a while the drop down boxes (file, edit, history etc.) do not work as they should. The new Bookmarks button and the Firefox tap area do the same thing. When one is clicked and I try to slide down to pick something the whole thing suddenly vanishes! This works just fine when the program is opened but over time the function is not there.
I also noticed that when typing this reply the spell checker marked a word to check. When I tried to choose the correct spelling the same thing happened. The drop down box vanished.
I renamed mozilla in my home folder to mozillaold and then opened Firefox 4 again.
It did not solve the problem. I just noticed that when typing this reply the spell checker marked a word to check. When I tried to choose the correct spelling the same thing happened. The drop down box vanished.

If I have another instance of FF open and switch between the two the
drop down boxes act as they should.

It doesn't matter weather the laptop goes to sleep or not I have found.

If I minimize FF to the lower panel and then maximize it form the panel
then drop down boxes in FF act as they should.

If I leave FF in the background with another application in front with
the focus on it I can switch back to FF and the drop down boxes work as
they should.

I have also noticed that the menu drop down for bookmarks does not show
folder icons just a blank space before the folder name. The other single
bookmarks have an icon before the name.

If I turn on the bookmarks sidebar the folder icons show there.

Thanks, Bob.
