Firefox (Iceweasel) 3: is this page rendered horribly?
 

Carl Fink wrote:

parts of the page jumbled together. It's apparently a Gecko problem,
because Epiphany does the same thing now that I've got Iceweasel 3.

Can anyone confirm? If so, I'll report it as a bug.


Looks OK here:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008062910
Iceweasel/3.0 (Debian-3.0~rc2-2)


Debian Sid. Not my kind of website, but looks OK.

Running 3.0~rc2.2 on Debian Lenny (Testing) and the rendering looks good
to me.

Have fun!

Displays fine here with iceweasel 3.0~rc2-2.

OK, if the page looks fine to everyone else, why would it be wrong in both
Epiphany and Iceweasel on my box?

Could it be that I've been reluctant to restart X (up for 74 days) despite
installing several upgrades?

Maybe, if you use a display manager.

Epiphany is also based on the Gecko rendering engine, isn't it?

If you use an Intel integrated graphics card with XAA acceleration, try
the XAANoOffscreenPixmaps workaround (see bug #482992).

To find out which services/processes need restarting after an upgrade,
run

lsof | grep "path inode"

as root. This should list all processes that hang on to stale files. The
checkrestart command from "debian-goodies" is supposed to do the same
thing more comfortably, but this does not work for me at the moment (see
bug #491235).

Thanks for the debian-goodies tip. It's really a very useful package.

There were lots, and restarting X didn't free them. A restart fixed the
problem.

Thanks.

That page looks fine here on IW3 but it still renders fonts too large on
some other sites.

You mean rebooting?
