I've been having the same issue for months with Firefox, using XMonad. I doubt this is a DE-caused issue. Possibly something to do with X. Might be worth testing it under Wayland. On Tue, Jan 17, 2023, 9:33 AM NicoHood wrote:

Hey guys, I dont know where to report this, as it could be related to firefox, thunderbird or gnome (or any other desktop related software).

In the last 1-2 Weeks (I dont update that often) I noticed that after some time (have not found a reproducible reason) right clicks, or context menus in genral in Firefox stop working at all. The menu pops up for a few milliseconds and then disappear.

When you restart firefox everything works again. I noticed the same isse in thunderbird too, which is also by mozilla. I did not notice it in any other application. I am using gnome as Desktop environment.

Do you have the same issue? Any hint if this is a gnome, firefox or other issue?

Cheers Nico

For a counter data point, to help you debug, I'm having no such issues, using this configuration: Firefox and Thunderbird XFCE X (not Wayland) See http://darose.net/FirefoxRightClickMenu.png for a screenshot. HTH, DR
