[Bug 1954765] Re: Firefox instance opens with an unusable window that has the content area filled with the frozen image of the window/desktop image in the background
Thanks for the info Michael. It would be very helpful if you could file an upstream bug report with this information at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Firefox, and share the link to it here.

[Bug 1954765] Re: Firefox instance opens with an unusable window that has the content area filled with the frozen image of the window/desktop image in the background
Hi, I have experienced the same behaviour, or a very similar one. I also use KDE, and have a Intel/Nvidia hybrid system. When on Power Save mode (I use Plasma Optimus to switch btw), on the first start of firefox in a session it just displays a frozen image of what was on the screen when I started it. If I kill it and start it a second time it works normally, and also on subsequents starts, until I log out and back in again. This is also happening with the upstream firefox from the link in comment https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1954765/comments/6 Can confirm that switching to Hybrid mode makes the problem go away. If you want me to collect debug information, let me know what you want. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1954765 Title: Firefox instance opens with an unusable window that has the content area filled with the frozen image of the window/desktop image in the background To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1954765/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for following up! If you don't mind switching back to 'Intel (Power saving mode)' and testing again, that would be helpful. When you do that, can you please test an upstream build (downloaded from https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/download/thanks/) to see whether it's an Ubuntu-specific problem? Otherwise, feel free to close the bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1954765 Title: Firefox instance opens with an unusable window that has the content area filled with the frozen image of the window/desktop image in the background To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1954765/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This issue happened on a laptop of mine with a hybrid GPU setup. It reliably went away after I switched my GPU settings from 'Intel (Power saving mode)' to 'NVIDIA On-Demand'. I am not sure why that is the case. I got the solution within a week or so after I reported this bug. So yes, this issue is not happening any more. If it will help, I can switch to the 'Intel (Power saving mode)' and test if the issue happens again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1954765 Title: Firefox instance opens with an unusable window that has the content area filled with the frozen image of the window/desktop image in the background To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1954765/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The attached screenshot shows a Firefox window (identified by the title in the title bar) whose content area has the frozen image of the terminal application that I had open when launching Firefox. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot illustrating the issue" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1954765/+attachment/5547527/+files/firefox_frozen_unusable.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1954765 Title: Firefox instance opens with an unusable window that has the content area filled with the frozen image of the window/desktop image in the background To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1954765/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
