same as #121.

I don't know if it has something to do with JavaScript popups generated by Chromium extensions like the one I use :
Mail Checker Plus for Gmail & Facebook Notifier. It happened to me several times, when a new popup appears (Gmail or Facebook ).
The bug applies to Chromium and Google Chrome in my case.
Let's add that even disabling these extensions, browsing websites with Flash content that prompt the user to interact with some popups, may trigger the white box.

The size of the white box I get, is different every time, from a very
small rectangle to a whole screen blank box.

I also believe it is a compiz Issue, well at least, the way Compiz handles these popups.
Running Precise updated.
