When i have been running Deer Park A2 for a couple of days, without a restart
the following bug accurs.

When i go to the bookmarks menu, the blue bar that shows which bookmark or
folder is selected flashes/blinks as long as you move the mouse and when you
stop moving the mouse the blue select background disappears. And it's very hard,
but possible to click bookmarks.

I didn't have this problem in Deer Park A1.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use Deer Park Alpha 2 for a couple of days without restarting it.

Actual Results:  
The same thing as I described in details.

I seen the same issue on my laptop. Not on my desktop. It might be due to that
the computer went in standby mode?

Comment 2

[Christian Granqvist]

It might be, but my computer never goes to standby mode it only shuts of the
monitor.

I've seen this a few times to. If I remember correctly it occured after I
switched GNOME's theme with Firefox open.

Duping as bug 306426 because of the better steps to reproduce.
