This problem did indeed appear when I installed Unity. The problem is associated with the movement of the menu bar from within the application window into the header of the window manager. It is not apparent from the outside how this GUI revision was implemented, hence my confusion about the source of the problem. If the application was just told the window address of the menu bar as being at the position of the window manager header, then I blame Nautilus ( and my one occurrence of Firefox error is a similar error inside Firefox, unlikely but possible). If instead the menu logic in an application is revised to pass a-menu data structure to the window manager and the window manager logic is used I blame the window manager. I suppose by your reply that this more complicated method of implementing the GUI is not in use and the prior method is how this was implemented. None the less, the bug is still displaying it's ugly head in Nautilus from time to time. I have only seen it once in Firefox and that would be with thousands of executions. If I see it any where else I will let you know. I did try for a couple hours to force it to happen so I could give you the steps but I am still unable to generate on demand sorry. If I can do any thing to help I will just ask. Keep up the good work, Karl -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/934288 Title: Nautilus Does not Display Menus Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Nautilus (file manager) working fine, then not. What happens is the menus stop displaying. You select a menu item expecting a list of actions and you get about four pixel wide little bump where the list normally displays. I suspect it is there but being displayed under the menu bar where it is not visible on the display.
