Description

[Dean]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:22.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/22.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20130618035212

Steps to reproduce:

Open any web page, YouTube for example.


Actual results:

Noticed immeadiatly after last update: Text in random areas of the page displays incomplete, simular to a sputtering printer.  Often just a line or two, somtimes a paragraph.  Remedied by A) Highlighting the affected text, B) Scrolling the affected text off, then back into display.  Sometimes a mouse hover works, but not consistantly.  


Expected results:

Text should be displayed normaly.

Please check if the issue occurs using Firefox in safe mode (with your addons disabled):

Taking a screenshot clears the problem, same as highlighting or scrolling.
