Do you have a link ? http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13795 http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15098 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=411831 In short: * If you use XAA acceleration, set Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "true". This should be safe. * Alternatively, switch from XAA to EXA, if the latter is supported and proves to work for your graphics card. I have an "ATI Radeon X300SE" radeon(4) card here and _for that specific hardware_ I highly recommend switching to EXA. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de
