190008 - Hover links and highlight bars in menus and bookmark lists flicker and disappear under certain conditions

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 159277

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Marc Beckersjuergen]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130

Don't want to nitpick here, but this can really get annoying:

When running a dual display setup under Windows 2000 (this did not occur on my
previous Win98 install!) the underscores of Links on pages and the highlight
bars in the Mozilla menus and bookmark lists flicker and disappear when the
mouse is hovering above them. In this specific case I am using Nvidia drivers
(40.72, 41.09 are way to buggy to use) and have set the option to "use each
Monitor as a separate display" in the desktop tool setting of the driver (sorry,
got the german driver installation, so the label may differ).

This ONLY occurs on the secondary display. If Mozilla is moved to the primary
display, the links and menu highlight bars are fine.

Thanks for looking into it. I know it does not sound like a real problem or bug,
but it "feels" awkward...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use a multi display setup (tested with Nvidia's nview)
2. Run Mozilla on the secondary monitor
3. Access menu or bookmark lists or visit example page and hover over headlines

Actual Results:  
Links (with a:hover style setting) will flicker, menu/bookmark highlight bars
will blink and disappear
