Binary package hint: firefox
I am using 11.04 Ubuntu
Window of firefox is Maximized. Okular is maximize on another workstation.
I used meta+W to switch from firefox to Okular.
Then I used meta+W to switch back to firefox.
After this , I found that if I right click, the menu could appear as usually, but as soon as I move the cursor on to the menu, it disappears. The same bug applies to other menus like the bookmark folder, selective options that appear when you are entering text in a textbox.

If I un-maximize it, and maximize it again, the menu works fine again.
I tested other possibilities and found that switching between maximized applications using meta+w would result in this bug. If the other application is not maximized, the bug would not appear.
Thus I guess something conflicts in firefox when switching using meta+W .
