I'm running Linux Mint KDE and have been having an issue with Firefox lately. When I attempt to open the the Firefox menu (the one on the right with 3 bars), clicking has no effect.

Pressing alt opens the more traditional file menus, so I am able to access everything that way, however, given that I'm using the mouse for most menu selections anyway, getting use to pressing a key before. However I can reach for my mouse is awkward, and I'd ratherwould prefer if Firefox functionfunctioned as intended.

I searched the Firefox website for people having similar problems, but the answers on how to fix it have varied, and I've. I've tried the following but none of them have worked:

  • Starting in safe-mode
  • Refreshing Firefox
  • Using the default theme (I already was)
  • Disabling hardware acceleration
  • Running Firefox from command-line and looking for errors (there were none)
  • renaming ~/.mozilla and reopening firefox
  • apt purge firefox and reinstalling

None of theseDoes anyone have helped. What might be causing thisany other suggestions?
