Details

Darose mentioned this in the Cairo 1.2 problem thread:

"I'm having rendering problems too. See the attached screenshots. The first shows how one of Firefox's pull-down menus renders when I first pull it down. The menus only render properly (as in the 2nd image) when I run the mouse over each of the menu options."

I started a new installation yesterday and Firefox is having all sorts of problems rendering web pages and its own menus. It seems like it is a different problem than the anti-aliasing situation with Cairo. It is only happening on my newest machine; my other Arch box is functioning correctly. Some screenshots are availiable in the middle of this thread under GTKProb1.png and GTKProb2.png:

Reason for closing:  Duplicate
Additional comments about closing:  This is a pure pango-cairo problem, which relies in the cairo lib. Please stick to 5003, or otherwise we'll have a bug open for each and every pango-cairo application
