[Bug 312353] [NEW] improper mouse hover behavior with links

[Michael Marley]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.1

Using Firefox 3.1 on Kubuntu 9.04 Jaunty, if I move the mouse over a
link, the hover function does not work properly.  If the mouse is
stopped over a link, it remains as the standard cursor.  If it is
moving, then it rapidly alternates between the standard cursor and the
link select cursor.  This only happens if at some point I have moused
over one of the buttons in the Firefox chrome.  I have tried launching
Firefox with the -safe-mode switch, but this does not affect the
problem.

This problem affects functionality because some websites use menus that
appear when a link is moused over, and this problem keeps the menu from
staying on the screen.

** Affects: firefox-3.1 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
