[SOLVED-ish] Some Pictures inverted in Firefox

Lately some pictures in firefox are inverted. This only happens with some pictures, not all. But they are always the same ones. This also happens in epiphany, so it may be a xulrunner problem.

It looks like this:

where it should look like that(from opera):

My first thought: http://www.ex-parrot.com/pete/upside-down-ternet.html.  Too bad it's a different inverted .

I'd try reinstalling libjpeg, libpng etc and firefux

Tried that, but didn't help

I also did change the mirror and loaded the packages anew

The firefox package itself doesn't really handle this stuff; Its more likely a xulrunner problem.

Re: [SOLVED-ish] Some Pictures inverted in Firefox

Just checked with heise.de. Everything displays normal on firefox 3.5.2-1 and xulrunner 1.9.1.2-1. Could it be a video driver problem? (I use nvidia 185.18.31-1.)

Before blaming the drivers - do you use Compiz/KDE 4/xcompmanager or anything of that nature? I'm pretty sure that FF doesn't play well with KDE.

Re: [SOLVED-ish] Some Pictures inverted in Firefox

I have a board with built in AMD 780G(/X1300?) and use fglrx. I have a spare nvidia card lying around, I will put it in and try out tonight.

I use X without a xorg.conf file and don't use desktop effects as video playback doesn't work right with them for me
