I have exactly the same problem on my blade 100. It's running a fairly current
sid with custom kernel 2.6.9. It's not only a problem for firefox though, since
it occurs with galeon too. Epiphany 1.8.3-4 and mozilla-browser 2:1.7.12-1.1
work fine.

Bug 354725 describes the problem. As far as I know, no fix is known yet.
