I haven't noticed the regression in time for firefox 34.0 update. It'll be fixed in firefox 35.0 (around 2015-01-13) or maybe sooner if a committer steps up. https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=195559#c7 > I'm using gnome 3 and FreeBSD10.1 RELEASE r275612, on a 8gb ram, core > i7 3930k based computer, and well configured X.org server. it's mine > problem or this option is buggy/broken? GTK3 in www/firefox isn't polished yet even after backporting a lot of fixes landed upstream (37.0a1 currently). One can compare look&feel against GTK2 by installing a uniform theme for both e.g., # use Adwaita (default) Gtk3 theme for Gtk2 apps $ pkg install gnome-themes-standard $ echo 'gtk-theme-name = "Adwaita"' >>~/.gtkrc-2.0 Or wait a few more releases. At that point the issues affecting your productivity maybe fixed. Disclaimer: I do dogfood GTK3 but only as firefox-nightly with nvidia-driver. Other X11 drivers maybe more fragile. > > greetings ------------------------------------------------- VFEmail.net - http://www.vfemail.net ONLY AT VFEmail! - Use our Metadata Mitigator to keep your email out of the NSA's hands! $24.95 ONETIME Lifetime accounts with Privacy Features! 15GB disk!
