[Bug 286932] Re: openoffice and skype menus and buttons disappear and reappear hovering over with mouse

[Guglielmo Cola]

I confirm what you said on my system too.
I installed version 173 of nvidia driver and everything is fine now.
I just don't know why Ubuntu reccomends me to install version 177... why?

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: nvidia and compiz
  
  ubuntu hardy 64bit
  openoffice 2.4 from repo
  openoffice 3.0 from openoffice web-site
  
  hello
  i had no problems till some days ago openoffice started to do something quite annoying:
  when i hover with mouse over the text on a drop-down-menu, like "file" or "tools" or any other, the text and the icons disappear and reappear... also the buttons like "OK" or "CANCEL" appear and disappear.
  sometimes option-widows of openoffice open with no text or text just half drowned. 
  klicking with mouse on windows lets text appear completely...
  
  i tryed other teams, also human, , it does not work.
  removed ~/.gtk*  but no avail.
  
  the only thing that works is to switch off compiz.
  might this be related to new nvidia-drivers 177?
