Summary: Latest nighly is unusbale on linux → Latest nighly is unusable on linux
I can confirm today's build has tons of graphic problems on Ubuntu 16.04, Ludovic is on Fedora 24 and another user using Debian Sid also confirmed the problem on the #nightly IRC channel

Narrowed inbound regression window from [320ee111, cc866385] (3 revisions) to [3ead61d6, cc866385] (2 revisions) (~1 t)INes, no (more) inbound revisions :(INFO: Last good revision: 3ead61d6add69268a1a240a9bc36891b9e3b763aINFO: First bad revision: cc866385dd0124bde69f1d7fd50baee93c531ddf Pushlog: https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/mozilla-inbound/pushloghtml?fromchange=3ead61d6add69268a1a240a9bc36891b9e3b763a&tochange=cc866385dd0124bde69f1d7fd50baee93c531ddf Looks like the following bug has the changes which introduced the regression: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1284808
The regression window identified by mozregression points at bug 1284808 as the likely bug that introduced the regression but the regression window also has bug 1284440 listed and thjs a graphics change so maybe this is this one instead.
Problems go away with layers.acceleration.force-enabled;true Apart of missing highlight background of bookmark lists when the list is long enough (only first 3-4 entries show the highlight when hovering over), don't know if this is the same Bug (but new in todays nightly).
[Tracking Requested - why for this release]: I can reproduce on Nightly50.0a1 on Ubuntu14.04. Regression window: https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/mozilla-inbound/pushloghtml?fromchange=3ead61d6add69268a1a240a9bc36891b9e3b763a&tochange=c8700e65f41b9a7ead1047848e06d1eddd62564d Regressed by: c8700e65f41b Morris Tseng — Bug 1284440 - Prevent CreateRenderTargetForWindow from clearing unwanted area. r=mattwoodrow

This is also affected to the Profile Manager. STR 1. Create many user profiles(more than 6) 2. firefox -no-remote -P 3. Try to scroll the profile list Actual Results: The listbox would not scroll and become glitch
Tracking 50+ for this Linux regression.

I saw this problem in ubuntu 16.04 today and workaround in comment 5 helped me. After the latest nightly from later today (navigator.buildID is now "20160707083343") I was able to undo the workaround and still have this nightly work fine. So I can confirm the fix
