267402 - portions of web page is rendered black and changes to normal when mouse hovers over it

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[UKR]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1

When I load http://www.rr.com, portions of the page is loaded black in color
(sometimes almost 90% of the page). When I hover my mouse over those black
areas, those portions become normal in a sluggish way. I found the same
behaviour in Firefox 0.10PR and Mozilla 1.7. I am not sure whether the site is
coded as per standards.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://www.rr.com
2. Hover your mouse over the page
3.

Actual Results:  
Rendered page is black and switches to normal sluggishly, when mouse is moved
over the black areas.

Expected Results:  
Should have correctly rendered the page if the page had been coded as per standards.

I upgraded to FC3 and the problem is gone. I believe that it was because of the
bug in Xorg 6.7.0 concerning Xvideo video memory allocation. This is fixed in
Xorg 6.8.x. Details of the bug are at
http://freedesktop.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=474

Nothing in Mozilla itself was broken or fixed.
