If I press Ctrl+T in Full Screen mode then the Navigation Toolbar get visible if it is hidden and the location bar has focus and I can type immediately in the urlbar.

What happens in your case ?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Themes
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window
