@ubuntu demon: The issue is discussed here:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=422179
and not the bug that you mentioned.

vlad says about the bug (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=422179#c9) that
"Mozilla doesn't scale the images at all -- we hand off the image and a transform to RENDER,
which needs to do the scaling. The issue is that the
version of pixman that's currently shipped with all X servers doesn't implement
EXTEND_PAD, which we need to get correct behaviour at image edges."

I'm a noob, and this bug is really bothering me. I have my account of the problems on ubuntuforums:

Please help.
