To get to that source page, use: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1594850119/ref=s9subs_c2_img1-rfc_g1-2991_g1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=102RBD51D6AEF1M2ZPGQ&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=278240301&pf_rd_i=507846
then click on Look Inside
Ubuntu release is 8.04 from LXFDVD107 July 2008 (comes with Linux Format magazine)
I expected to see a page from the book, but all I see is a blank screen.

I had to say "I don't know" button because I get a "firefox-3.0b5" does not exist in Ubuntu. Please choose a different package. If you're unsure, please select "I don't know" but "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9b5) Gecko/2008041514 Firefox/3.0b5" when I click on Help/ About.

Works for me in firefox 3 RC1. Can you try upgrading (the repositories now contain the final version 3), and see if you still have the same problem?
