The same problems happen for me, with 3.5.13 on Ubuntu 11.10.  I've changed
the subject because these things happened before I installed Slavek's
patches, as well.

The display issues are mostly just inconvenient, but this one is more of a
problem.  For me it happens in Firefox and Thunderbird (I don't use Opera).
 Both programs crash as soon as I click OK in a save dialog box.  If it's a
very small file it usually still gets saved, but all but the smallest files
don't get saved.  I have to use either wget in a shell, or save via the
AttachmentExtractor addon in Thunderbird.

These and a few other problems make it impossible for me to set up other
users on Trinity.  I can use it myself and work around the problems, but I
have to keep everyone else on XFCE.
