This is interesting and I'm also having this behavior since *months* - but only with the Vivaldi browser and there only when using the private mode. I use KDE and update more often a week. - Oliver On Tuesday, 17 January 2023, 15:33:37 CET you 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?

I haven't had any issues with either Firefox or Thunderbird right-click menus with X and i3 (previously i3-gaps). On 1/17/23 06:39, Wesley Kerfoot wrote:

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.

Good to know. I am using gnome with X, not wayland if that matters. I did not update for weeks, so it is possible that the issue exists even longer in the yet unknown software. On 17/01/2023 15:39, Wesley Kerfoot wrote:

Yes, because I use plank as a dock which only works with X :( And its such a nice dock! On 17/01/2023 15:43, Polarian wrote:

Hello,

Gnome by default uses waylands now, you optionally chose to use xorg?

Thanks,

Ah, so I’m not the only one… It only seems to happen in Thunderbird for me though, not in Firefox. And I’m on KDE Plasma, running X. Regards, Bruno/Archange

No issues here

KDE and X

No issues here either: Xorg + LXQt + Fluxbox. -- Javier
