Public bug reported: When I access a website that opens another window, the title 'Firefox Web Browser' is not completely removed when I go to the top line of the display with my mouse. The options 'File Edit View...' appear, but the word 'Firefox' remains and obscures the window close/maximise/minimise buttons, making it impossible to close Firefox (although a workaround is to right click on the Firefox launcher and select Quit). The same thing occurs when I have several tabs open (as I do at the moment completing this report). I believe that this is a new 'feature' of 14.04 LTS - I did not observe this problem in 13.10.
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, and here's the apt-cache policy output: firefox: Installed: 28.0+build2-0ubuntu2 Candidate: 28.0+build2-0ubuntu2 Version table: *** 28.0+build2-0ubuntu2 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: firefox 28.0+build2-0ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-24.46-generic 3.13.9 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-24-generic x86_64 AddonCompatCheckDisabled: False ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: john 1974 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: john 1974 F.... pulseaudio BuildID: 20140410211200 Channel: Unavailable CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Wed Apr 23 19:07:04 2014 ExecutablePath: /usr/lib/firefox/firefox Extensions: extensions.sqlite corrupt or missing ForcedLayersAccel: False IfupdownConfig: # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8) auto lo iface lo inet loopback IncompatibleExtensions: Unavailable (corrupt or non-existant compatibility.ini or extensions.sqlite) InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-04-19 (4 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release amd64 (20131016.1) IpRoute: default via 192.168.1.1 dev eth0 proto static 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.66 metric 1 IwConfig: eth0 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions.
