Also, eventually Firefox window contents stop updating, but when clicking around the tabs, the window title changes, so the actual UI events are passed, but the window contents is not updating. When attempting closing Firefox, it ends up to "Not responding" grey window view. Can you check whether downgrading firefox helps? also can you check whether firefox uses webrender? marking as needsinfo as per vlad's comment (In reply to Vlad Zahorodnii from comment #4) > Can you check whether downgrading firefox helps? Could not downgrade, but I had a system that was not upgraded yet. Was reproduced: 114.0+build2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~mt1 -> OK 114.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~mt1 -> NOK >also can you check whether firefox uses webrender? How? -------------------- System info: Operating System: KDE neon 5.27 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.106.0 Qt Version: 5.15.9 Kernel Version: 5.19.0-43-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 4 × AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor Memory: 7,8 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: SVGA3D; build: RELEASE; LLVM; Manufacturer: innotek GmbH Product Name: VirtualBox System Version: 1.2 -------------------------------------------- (In reply to Vlad Zahorodnii from comment #4) >can you check whether firefox uses webrender? gfx.webrender.all : false -> true There is still flickering, but it's of different kind. When webrender.all = false, eventyually ALL window content, except the titlebar text, stops rendering, including tabs and UI buttons etc. Can also sometimes reproduce on wayland, but only when there is more than one screen.

This is what I am experiencing, but I do not get any type of flicker. I haven't been able to reproduce the error yet, it seems random.
