Title:
  Firefox 13 takes control over the mouse pointer when bookmarks are
  dragged on xubuntu 12.04

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This bug first appeared when i tried to drag and drop bookmarks to the
  new "new tab" page.

  it repeated when i tried to drag and drop the favicon to a bookmark
  folder.

  
  EDIT: You can recover the pointer by killing firefox, alt-tabing to a taskmanager, pressing alt-F2 and killall firefox or going to a tty by ctrl-alt-Fn and killing from there, you can also just alt-f4 and close the firefox instance.

  This bug wasnt reported properly earlier, i apologize for that.
