Thanks -

I will look, though reading what is there is nearly impossible in Ubuntu.

Yes it would be useful to attach some screen shots, there is a section
on the right hand side of the page which lets you add attachments.

Status in “firefox-3.0” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete

Bug description:
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Fonts (any fonts) turn into blocks quickly on any application.  At first, some test becomes "grayed out".  Then the text becomes a block of the original font (blue font becomes a blue block, red font becomes a red block etc.) and more and more text becomes affected.

I have screenshots that I would like you to see - is it possible to attach them?

i CANNOT read the guidance on this bug reporting page since almost all of the text is now blocks of black or color.
