Display problems in Firefox and Thunderbird

Hi,

I'm having display problems in Firefox and Thunderbird since recently. I think both problems can be linked, and may be due to something else than Firefox and Thunderbird, but I don't know really what it can be due to.

I'm running i3, but I also have them in Awesome. And they don't vanish with safe-mode of these softwares.

The first one, with Thunderbird, is that buttons in the message panel are not resized or moved when I resize the window. Thus, they are hidden by other elements. Here is a more explicit screenshot : https://lut.im/WhsDSdHf/wk5V3Q6Q

The second, with Firefox, is that some times (very often), I can open the awesome bar, but elements are not displayed. When I mouve the selected element, it will appear. I haven't found a clear way to reproduce it for now and can't reproduce it right now. I will update this post with a screenshot as soon as I can get one.

Do you have any ideas about these bugs ?

Thanks

Re: Display problems in Firefox and Thunderbird

I'm running on a laptop with Bumblebee (Geforce GT650M). I only noticed these problems recently and I think they may have appeared with one of the latest updates I made. But I didn't find any information on this on the web and I must admit that I don't have much ideas for this problem…
