should we guess:
-
you say “sometimes” can you identify a cause->effect, like
everytime you have that browser running and you open OpenOffice over
it, THEN it is corrupted…OR, what? -
if using ATI or nVidia graphics, have you installed their driver,
or are you using the open source driver (try installing the closed
source driver) -
are you running compiz/desktop effects (if yes, try turning it off)
-
are you running KDE4.0 (if so, upgrade to 4.1.1, is it still corrupted)
-
do you see the same corruption with all themes? (if you do not
know, change your theme to another) -
do you see the same corruption only on your browser? (then, try a
different browser…is it also corrupted?) -
if you launch that browser from a command terminal, does it throw
any errors?
etc…
it is pretty hard to guess what the problem MIGHT be…

hmmm…(i’ve never used desktop effects, so i do not know) is a
restart REQUIRED in order to turn off desktop effects?
if not: then do not restart, at least until you know if turning off
the effects fixes the problem!!
if a restart IS required: what do you mean by “restart”?
- that is, do you mean log out of X-windows and then log back in
(WITHOUT booting the machine)
OR
- reboot the machine
if you mean reboot, then try it the other way:
-
turn off desktop effects
-
click the menu (or however you do it in Gnome to shutdown) but
INSTEAD of selecting Shutdown or Reboot, select “Switch user” or
“Close session” or something like that…one of those will get you
back to a Login screen, where you just log in again as yourself and
X-windows (and Gnome) will start again WITHOUT ever fully rebooting…
TRY that and see if you also have corruption without desktop effects
turned on…if so, THEN google or use the forums search to LEARN
how to turn off the effects so that it will NOT reboot and have them
on again…
and, FORGET the effects eye-candy for now…until you have learned
how to hack your way out of problems…
ymmv, good luck…
