[Bug 1512964] [NEW] overlapping frames displaying new tab

 

Public bug reported:

since recently, whenever I open a new tab in latest firefox version
41.0.2, there is some ugly display distortion with any new tab / webpage
I am opening: parts of the old tab window and parts of the newly opened
show in random rectangle-shaped display errors. None of these
distortions show in any other browser or application, neither in ubuntu
linux nor in windows'ses on the same pc.
