Bug Description

Binary package hint: mozilla-firefox

Although Ubuntu Gusty Gibbon Tribe 5 perfectly recognizes resolution and video card on my laptop (it has 15'' LCD and build in Intel graphic card), the default text size in Firefox is too small and needs to be increased manually (just one click on increase button solves the problem, but it is unnecessary and should work "out of the box").

I experienced the same problem, moreover the text size of menus stays reduced.
All other applications got the right text size.

I just tested granparadiso and the text size is fine.

On my case, after upgrading the menu fonts on Firefox aren't small but too big... :S

Sorry, a correction: during the installation it got big, but now after restarting they are REALLY small. That looks more like a joke than a bug xD, it's near to impossible to read them.

All other texts were also too small, I could adjust those from the GNOME programs though; on some KDE programs (akregator for example) it's still a bit small but still acceptable, only on Firefox it has a critical size and I've no idea on how to change it. If someone can give me a tip on how to increase it that would be great :).

*** This is an automated response ***

Thank you for your bugreport. Since this seems to be an issue with
version 3 of the firefox browser, I'm reassigning the package. If you
feel this is an error, please don't hesitate to add a comment to your
report.
