Hi folks, |

I noticed something weird but I'm not sure what to even search for to |
| 4 |
get a fix. When I play a video with Seamonkey or Firefox, then close |
| 5 |
the tab or close the browser, the video is still there. If the video |
| 6 |
contains text, it is really noticeable. It's like a freeze frame of |
| 7 |
what ever was there when I closed the tab or browser. It does this in |
| 8 |
both Seamonkey and Firefox. The video affects my desktop wallpaper or |
| 9 |
background, Konsole, Kpatience, and any other program I have open. It |
| 10 |
is weird. Some programs like Konsole, which is running as root, just |
| 11 |
sort of distort in some weird way. The only way to correct this |
| 12 |
weirdness is to log out of KDE and back in. That returns everything |
| 13 |
back to normal. Closing the app I was using to play the video does not |
| 14 |
work. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
If I use Firefox and download helper to capture the video and save it, I |
| 17 |
can play the video with Smplayer with no ill effects. It plays and |
| 18 |
closes just fine. It's just when I use Seamonkey or Firefox that this |
| 19 |
happens. |

I have upgraded the kernel and had upgrades to both Seamonkey and |
| 22 |
Firefox. I have recompiled the nvidia drivers as well. The nvidia |
| 23 |
drivers, kernel and other info is here: |

I have not tried a emerge -e world yet. I may do that when KDE 4.6.3 is |
| 48 |
released. |

Does anyone have any clue as to what could cause this? If you need more |
| 51 |
info, let me know. |
