    Although for Firefox, you pic does look the same.

    Thanks bapoumba for your info,it's exactly same issue, and if it's not the same pic in my attachment is because it's one was taken from another pc where the web browser in firefox29 Xubuntu 14.04 is working good and the other is taken from the pc that has the black bar hiding the links also running same xubuntu 14.04 and firefox 29.

    now the last page you suggested has this suggested code to use in the firefox start up page

    ''about:config

    gfx.xrender.enabled;false

    all i could get was delete all my favourites and stuff in the history and problem still there.

    unless you suggest anything else in the last page i'm stuck with same issue,thanks in advance

    You need to enter about:config in the url bar (maybe copy/paste from this thread) and find the gfx.xrander.enabled and change the value to false. In my screenshot, mine is true but does not give any issue. If it does not work, you can always revert it.
