Did you try with a new profile ? $ firefox -ProfileManager Yes. Same issues. I also reinstalled Flash plugin and I noticed that flash playback is horribly slow and also eats CPU. m. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Pango is enabled by default in Firefox 1.5. export MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 and try again. Wow. Thanks a lot, I missed that post in the forums. It seems to make a difference. Why does Pango support cripple the thing? m. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
