From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So im on zorin so basically ubuntu with gnome. Anyway I see this thing and it only happens with firefox but the switching between various windows I get back to firefox and it will be full screen size but not actually full screened so now I can see another window peeping over the top. Does not happen consistantly at all but like a minimum of once a day I notice it and click the window back to small and then full screen again to get it to use the whole real estate. Just seeing if anyone has seen behaviour like this or better yet knows something about it.

The only thing I see with hardware acceleration is starting in safe mode. Am I missing something?

Yes. I dont remember the word exactly but it might have the word "performance" or "hardware"

ahh ok I see it now. my control f was not working because it was hardware video acceleration although I swear I just did acceleration and did not seem to find it but I may just have lost the context while looking at the parts. Its clicking now today with the section and trying the configs. thank you I will try them.
