Ever seen a display like this?
Until I right clicked, and clicked on one or two different options, I didn't even have the upper or lower panel - just the page content was displayed.
Thanks.

Looks like a window-manager crash, but it's only affecting Fx.
Are you using Compiz?

It's what you get by pressing F11 - Toggle full screen view.

OK. But are you using Compiz or not? (i.e. 3D desktop effects)

No, I'm not using Compiz, that I know of (unless it is a default process).
I am having other occasional display issues, which I'm thinking are hardware related - display freezes with no mouse or keyboard response, sometimes FF shuts down the window.
The frequency of the freezes and FF shutdowns dropped significantly when I removed my KVM.
Any ideas?
Thanks/buccaneere......

I had to look that up. Are you talking about one of these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KVM_Switch ?
I've never used one, so I can't troubleshoot it.
The only other suggestion I can make is that if you are having trouble with Firefox, then use Konqueror, Opera or Epiphany instead.

Yup on the KVM - mine was un-powered.
And it's out of the loop now. But the occasional lockup, and the odd display from post 1 still occur; only with much less frequency.
Thanks for ideas... I'm gonna' load another browser and see, but I think I have a vid card problem, or mobo problem.
