Public bug reported: since recently, whenever I open a new tab in latest firefox version 41.0.2, there is some ugly display distortion with any new tab / webpage I am opening: parts of the old tab window and parts of the newly opened show in random rectangle-shaped display errors. None of these distortions show in any other browser or application, neither in ubuntu linux nor in windows'ses on the same pc.
