please attach a screenshot that shows your issue.

Also try to disable your flash plugin.

Also check whether you are using some special fonts (in firefox or gnome).

what graphics card/driver are you using? if you use nvidia try nv, if you use fglrx try ati or radeonhd please and see if this goes away.

[Carl Svensson (carl-sv-klobo-img)]

My graphic card is a ATI Mobile RADEON 9000.

[Carl Svensson (carl-sv-klobo-img)]

Problem is solved. I just unchecked "Let pages use own fonts, instead of defined above". That was my big misstake.

you seem to have a wierd font setup still ... if you use custom settings somewhere in gnome try to revert to default to hopefully get a better experience. Could also be "just" a website bug though.
