Hi.
Have the same problem and setting the layout.css.dpi to 96 fixed it for
me to.
Info from me:
xdpyinfo | grep resolut = resolution:147x145 dots per inch
gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/dpi = 96
Default font: serif Size: 14
Fonts for: Western
Proportional: Sans Serif
Same problem here using 64-bit Hardy and Firefox 3b5, all updates
applied. Two 20 monitors each 1600x1200. NVidia restricted drivers
using Twinview with absolute settings (+0+0 and +1600+0).
Here's the output from requested commands earlier in thread:
resolution: 198x98 dots per inch
96
As I
Sorry, somehow I missed destrius' message above before posting mine.
I checked layout.css.dpi and it said -1. Changing it to 96
immediately fixed everything. Every page on every tab looks perfect
now.
As a test, setting it back to -1 reverts each page to exactly the way it
looked with huge
Hi, I'm experiencing similar problems on my system. The problem seems to
be with fonts that have their sizes specified in points (pt); fonts
where the size is specified using px, em, or a percentage are fine. I
suspect this issue is related to what Firefox thinks the current screen
resolution is,

you didn't provide all info i asked
AFAICT I did provide all the info you asked for. Maybe you didn't
understand that 96 is the result of the 2nd command. If I am still
missing something, please be specific about what I should provide.
Thanks,
Dave

OK, sorry. the dpi settings
My FF preferences are the default AFAIK:
Default font: serif Size: 16
Fonts for: Western:
Proportional: Serif(note uppercase) Size: 16
Serif: serif (note lowercase)
Sans-serif: serif
Monospace: monospace Size: 12
Minimum font size: 9
I see this problem too. Occasionally parts of the web page becomes
huge; I usually notice it here on launchpad.net (see screenshot).
Before I saw this bug report I hadn't realized it's dual-head related.
I regularly switch between one screen configuration (14 widescreen
laptop at 1280x800) and
I restarted Firefox and the fonts look sane now in dual-head mode.
Could it be that Firefox remembers the physical screen size on startup
and recalculates the DPI when the resolution changes without noticing
that the physical screen size also changed?

Apparently I was wrong; I'm still seeing the problem.

3.0b5 appears to be what Hardy installs; that's what my About box says.

well, you can check and see what your font size for firefox is - that's
found in Edit - Preferences - Content tab. You might have messed up the
font size. I haven't had any problems with firefox 3.0b5 causing the
bizzare font issues on my system.

No, my font size is not messed up.
It was set at 16, but changing it to 12 didn't affect anything I saw
when looking at this bug's page. It appears to be a problem with
Firefox's idea of what constitutes a basic page style. When I choose
View Page Style No Page Style, everything looks spare
Also note the minimum font size setting in this screenshot. It turns
out that changing it to 9 doesn't affect what I see, but maybe this is a
related issue.

this appears to have something to do with xrandr and single/multi-head
switches.
I am using fglrx with the default configuration driving two 1600x1200
monitors (xrandr -s 0 = 3200x1200). When I undock my laptop I switch
to xrandr -s 1 (1600x1200) and aticonfig --enable-monitor=lvds. When I
This can be worked around by setting DisplaySize in the Monitor section
of xorg.conf, so there *may* be a bug somewhere else. Nonetheless, the
fact remains that Firefox and Emacs are the only two programs I've seen
respond this way.
