Can you test thunderbird 12 from updates? I just updated to 12.0.1, still broken. Can you please try it in safe mode? (thunderbird -safe-mode). Can you try a fres new profile? Please attach a screen of the corrupted popup. Created attachment 581956 [details]

the problem does not occur in safe mode. It also does not occur on another system, running Fedora 17, with the gnome-classic desktop. It runs gnome-classic because of a low grade video adapter. I will try this system with the xcfe desktop, then come back to gnome, try to create a new profile. Further reports later. Same results for xfce desktop, on this system. Starting with a new profile is not feasible, that profile has no messages or filters. Tanks. Can you please attach a bigger image? Ideally with the whole dialog box. attached full screenshot, showing context. Created attachment 582095 [details]

Does it matter which filter do you choose? And did you see it in previous version? What happens if you create a new filter and then edit it? It may be also a bug in X, could you try to increase your screen resolution? If nothing of them help, please try to get stacktrace when thunderbird is unresponsive. How-to is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Debugging_guidelines_for_Mozilla_products#Attach_debugger_to_running_application and please paste the stacktrace here. Don't forger to install the debuginfo packages (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Debugging_guidelines_for_Mozilla_products#Installing_debug_info_packages) Thanks! It does not matter which filter I choose. It occurred in previous version. I cannot create a new filter, the same thing happens as when I try to edit. I can agree it might be X, I sometimes see large triangular artifacts, usually on screen refresh after getting new messages. The display is an Intel i915, but I cannot increase resolution. Screen is a 1076x600 touchscreen netbook. Small height is confusing display code ? When I have more time, I will do the serious debugging. I have to teach this afternoon. The resolution may not affect it - works fine for me in 800x600. Can you test stock mozilla binary from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird ? |
