zhsoft88, I was not able to duplicate the problem with a recent version of
Firefox+xft.  I saw the whole string "C CX" where the "C" were Chinese
characters and the "X" was just an "X".

Are you still able to reproduce the problem with a recent version of Firefox or
Mozilla?

After testing many linux, I found this problem only appears on Co-Create Desktop
Linux. So this is not a Firefox BUG, but a Co-Create Desktop Linux BUG. I have
already reported this bug to them.

thanks.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

In that case, I'll mark this bug "RESOLVED INVALID", since---at least for
now---it doesn't seem to be a Mozilla problem.

Thanks again!
