Since yesterday's upgrade of firefox to 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.4-2, something's out of whack: only the first word on each line of text is displayed. If I click on or highlight the line (via left mouse button), the rest of the words usually appear, then disappear again if I move the mouse. This behavior extends even to Firefox's own buttons: e.g., "Check " becomes "Check Mail" when touched. Mozilla-browser displays text OK, as does mozilla-firefox in a chrooted sarge installation on the same computer. So I think it's a firefox problem. Downgrading firefox as low as 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.3-2 does not help, nor does fiddling with fonts via "Preferences," nor even purging and reinstalling it. The machine with the misbehavior is a ThinkPad A31, pure sid, and it shows up with two different home-compiled kernels: 2.6.16 from Debian and 2.6.17 from kernel.org. Got suggestions? If so, thanks! -- JohnRChamplin@columbus.rr.com ==================================================== PGP key 1024D/99421A63 2005-01-05 EE51 79E9 F244 D734 A012 1CEC 7813 9FE9 9942 1A63 gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 99421A63
