Now, is anyone else seeing a white rectangle flashing when the GUI is being loaded?
Several people reported seeing it too, including me. It's harmless and is goes a moment later. All the fingers were pointing at Qt,

But now I'm seeing something similar when I start firefox. So maybe its deeper, in chrome perhaps.

Anyone else?

I 'knew' that as I posted… but decided my memory might be on the Blink, and Mozilla had followed MS's Edge down the yellow-brick road to Chrome.

Its not graphics drivers either, I never change them… moonbeams?

The latest release of calibre (7.2) fixes its startup glitch… and, wait for it… the similar behaviour I was seeing in Firefox 102!

Quantum entanglement - a bizarre, counter-intuitive phenomenon that explains how two subatomic particles can be intimately linked to each other even if separated by billions of light-years of space. Despite their vast separation, a change induced in one will affect the other.
