I made a simple page to demonstate the bug: http://kapranoff.ru/~kappa/sizebug.html The screenshot of this page displayed in my browser is attached. Looks like fonts sized in a narrow corridor around 200px are affected. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Size a font via CSS property font-size to 200px Actual Results: Bad rendering

I did two additional checks. This bug is not due to some extensions -- I started with an empty profile. This bug is not present on Windows XP.

The image posted already looks like the ubuntu build error. This image shows the official firefox build with a slightly different error.

I noticed that the rendering is temporarily fixed if you select the right part of a line with your mouse. This is a screenshot. After clearing the selection (by clicking a mouse e.g.) the glitch returns.

I'm happy to announce that I don't see this bug any more in official Ubuntu 8.10 Firefox (3.0.6)!
