100932 - Black lines in the Modern skin

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 80292

(Core Graveyard :: Skinability, defect)

Description

[Bob Warren]

As of 0.94 and latest nightlies, black streaks apear in the theme.  This also
true with Linux if you run Xfree 3.3.6 (although looks much worse than in Windows.)

Hmm.. wfm with the latest nightly, linux.
Does changing to classic theme - restart - then changing back to modern and
restart change anything?

[Mike Young]

I've seen this once or twice as well, it appears to be artifacts from other
windows. Mozilla apparently doesn't repaint that area.

Check out the Linux shot, really bad.  This has been true since the new pale
blue modern theme was released.

Marking WFM 2001092208 on Win2k.

Reporter: Please try these steps, and reopen the bug if it still occurs for you. 

When you install the latest nightlies, be sure to delete the old Mozilla
directory before installing the new one (as opposed to just installing over the
old version).

Also, please try a fresh profile. To create/manage profiles, just run Mozilla
with "mozilla.exe -profilemanager".

New profile doesn't help.  The Win32 version is a new install (Mozilla never
existed on this machine before.)  The Linux problem is more important to me. 
The prolem with the streaks also occurs on web pages that use a stretch bitmap.
 This ONLY happens with Xfree 3.3.6.

Ok, marking NEW. Dupe of bug 73195?

Bob: You may also want to try installing the very latest drivers for you video
card (some old drivers "play badly" with Mozilla).

Looks like bug 80292 is a match for a dupe. Reporter: If you disagree, please
reopen this bug.
