Hi! Yesterday I got an update of said apps (firefox, thunderbird, seamonkey) so I updated them (see list of version and possibly related parts below). Now all of them exhibit a strange phenomenon: Often, the window, or parts thereof are not redrawn, just cleared, which makes it hard to see web pages and mail. In order to force a redraw I have to resize the app, which is annoying.
I run the latest ati binary ati-drivers-10.6 which ran fine with the previous versions, so I don't think that's the problem. Does anyone else see this problem or know the solution? It's only firefox, seamonkey and thunderbird that exhibits this problem. x11-libs:cairo-1.8.10:20100723-161942.log x11-plugins:enigmail-1.1.2-r1:20100723-172804.log
