Subject: 27.0.50; Menus off-screen
Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2017 11:00:10 -0400

Menus, e.g. toolbar menus such as "Buffers", "Edit" etc. are not showing
up. Sometimes a line is visible at the top left of the screen.

This was reported for earlier versions of emacs, but it doesn't seem to
be fixed yet.

Console reports a bunch of GTK errors:

There wasn't any response in a month, so I guess this problem went away
at the time, and I'm therefore closing this bug report.  If somebody's
still seeing this issue, opening a new bug report is probably the way
forward.
