When running Firefox on display 2, it doesn't repaint the window when coming out of a locked screen.

I just tried it again and determined the problem only occurs when Firefox isn't the active window and it doesn't matter which display it is on.

I'm running an NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX with an NEC SyncMaster 2243 as display 1 and a Planar PL1700 as display 2.

Display 1 resolution is 1680 x 1050 and display 2 is 1280 x 1024.

Have you tried the same res on both? If you have exhausted all possibilities and have updated to the latest video drivers then you can file a bug at http://bugzilla.mozilla.org = create an account first of course.
