Public bug reported: Clicking on any items in facebook with firefox in ubuntu always requires one or more extra clicks. The mouse cursor always seems to display incorrectly, or simply due to lagging. Like rollover on links, it does not change to 'hand with clicking finger', rollover on text does not change to a text cursor.
At first, I thought this is probably an issue that Facebook has as they might ignore the users using Linux since they might be targeting the majority users who are using Windows and Mac. However, when I use Chrome in Ubuntu, it is so much faster and does not have the issue I mention on the firefox.
