Seems you've got an issue between X and firefox3; at least there's a note in the firefox3 release notes which desribes similar effects: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=411831 Oh, but by the way, it's not an nvidia/nv issue; I've got the exactly same issues with radeonhd... Luckily, I do not depend that much on web browsers, let alone firefox3. Regards, Christoph -- Spare Space
