Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
Pages, menus and dropdown menus don't show up correctly : spaces resemble tab characters with the width of about 3 spaces. Changing the character encoding doesn't help nor does the use of the KDE3 window manager instead of Gnome. Disabling the add-ons has no effect either. Websites are therefore hard to read and I don't know
what caused the problem. Furthermore, Firefox crashes more often than before : I had several crashes today, this had never happened with Firefox2. I'm using Ubuntu Hardy Heron with a Gnome and KDE3 Desktop.

What do you mean by “blancs”?
