If a new tab is created, there's a little but annoying flickering.

I've found the cause of bug: new tab has at beginning the same background color of the (windows) system. After a millisecond, it changes to the color specified in "Tools" menu -> "Options..." -> "Content" pane -> "Colors..." -> "Background"

I see this as well.

No reply, INCOMPLETE. Please retest with Firefox 3.6.x or later and a new profile (http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles). If you continue to see this issue with the newest firefox and a new profile, then please comment on this bug.

I still experience this bug. I tested it with latest trunk - Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:2.0b8pre) Gecko/20101214 Firefox/4.0b8pre - and a new profile.

Probably I can see it because I have a very old pc. I repeat the steps to reproduce:

At "Menu Tools -> Options -> Content -> Colors..." set Background as black. Then save and try to open another tab.

You can say for some milliseconds the blank tab is not black but white, as default.

I hope it will fixed soon.

Yes, the bug is still here.

I can confirm it on latest trunk. And I work on Linux now.
