Hello ! Since this bug was reported a while ago, I would like to add a couple of words ... - It persists in Precise as well. Generally the common denominator in both my machines (running Oneiric and Precise) is NVidia video card with proprietary drivers. - I'm not sure, anymore, that Firefox is the address. Looks like it is something in the video path (Compiz ?), because since the bug was reported, similar behavior was observed with GEdit, gnome-terminal, xterm ... It all might be qualified as the graphical output 'misses' the window. Upon window resize / movement / minimizing / maximizing the problem becomes fixed ... for a while.

I have deleted '.mozilla' folder - doesn't help. Bug description: Firefox window kinda freezes. I.e. it cannot be scrolled with a mouse, any text that I type on the keyboard doesn't appear, changes on the web-page are not displayed. However, Firefox does get my input, it is only the display that freezes. Because when it gets out of this state, I see on the screen what should've been if everything went Ok. For example: google search results are ready, even though nothing appeared when I typed the query. Q: How does Firefox get out of this state ? A: Window size change solves the problem. No matter if the window is maximized or not - un-maximizing or maximizing the window accordingly, releases this stuck display.
