[gentoo-user] [OT probably] Firefox not painting

[Stuart Howard]

Hi

Has anyone either experienced or solved this issue, essentially it
means that the find bar and then all toolbars stop painting ie. go
grey and invisible. Detail >>

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=274823#add_comment

I have been watching that one for 6 months and tbh happily moved onto
Opera, however every so often I need firefox for some compatability
eg. realplay plugin and also the fact that it does not work for me
just irritates as I must assume it does not happen for 99% of firefox
users or else it would have been fixed by now.
Any thoughts ?
Note this occurs for me obviously on Gentoo with both BIN and source
 x11-base/xorg-x11
      Latest version available: 6.8.2-r6
      Latest version installed: 6.8.2-r6
 x11-libs/gtk+-2.8.8
x11-libs/cairo-1.0.2

checked other dependancies against those published against firefox-bin
on gentoo-portage and I have all as described.

This is almost _always_ theme related.  Please change your gnome theme, and
see what happens.

Thanks,

well I have always been using the default theme only however I
installed a new one and tried that with no change.
I also moved to .old my .mozilla to try fresh and again no change, my
system is almost entirely x86 ie. not ~x86.
Desktop is KDE though starting under fluxbox makes no change either.
