This may be rubbish, but have you tried tampering with the various compositor module settings ? Like lowering memory / timeouts and whatnot I haven't had the excact same problem, but then I don't use firefox, or menus... :) I did notice some wierd behaviour with certain drivers at some point, nouveau would flash junk at me, or change chars into blurs. I remember nvidia used to make my chrome browser semi-transparent. My weapon of choice was ctrl+alt+whatever makes E restart. Are you all using the same graphics chip manufacturer / drivers perchance ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.
