I have been running PCLOS KDE4.x for some time now but recently I have a strange thing happen using FireFox. Some web pages have moving video images (changing photos or other moving graphics) at random locations on the viewable page. My problem is that some of these carry over to other web pages in blank areas (same general part of the screen). I can shut down Firefox and reload but this static image remains, and the only way to clear it is to log off and back on again. I am suspicious that the video card may be misbehaving but I'm not sure. (Galaxy Geforce 8400 GS). Anyone out there had a similar problem?

Thanks Rudge for the "heads up" I forced the older version of the flash player and the problem seems to have gone away.

Changing the KDE Desktop to the Folder View fixes the problem.

Another thing You can do is turn off Hardware acceleration in flash settings in Firefox.

Ghosting is a Firefox flash plugin problem. Developers are aware of it and working on the fix.
