Not sure of the best way to describe this…
If Firefox (6.0.2) has been running for any length of time, I have a problem with menu options. I can click on any menu and the menu opens up; however, as soon as I move the mouse to select an option, the menu disappears.
I’ve done a search but can’t find anyone else with this issue.
Any suggestions?
You use v6.0.2 why?
Did you test a new user?
If this was me, I would just switch to Firefox 7. I suggest you add in the following repository, not including the quotes “”:
“http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/openSUSE_11.3/x86_64/”
YaST (Enter Root User Password) / Software / Software Repositories / Add button bottom left / Specify URL, make sure to give it a name.
Next, you want to switch to this repository:
YaST (Enter Root User Password) / Software / Software Management / View on top Left / Repositories and select the Mozilla Repository you just added on the Left Column. See just above the Package listing it says: Switch System Packages to the versions in this repository (Mozilla). Select Switch System Packages with your mouse and allow the replacement of all Mozilla files from here. I suggest a restart of openSUSE when you are complete.
Thank You,
Because I find that sort of wisdom eludes me except in hindsight…
I’ll try switching versions of Firefox. Thanks to all.
I’ve upgraded to 7.0.2 but am still experiencing the problem. It goes away if I restart Firefox, but comes back again.
Did you test a new user and or a new .mozilla?

Tip, disable all extension & plugins. Check if it is getting better or
the same.
Sometimes a ‘not so good’ plugin could cause this problem.
