Good.

Still no graphic distortion with fonts set to 20 and zooming to 130%.
Hm. Perhaps a relation with graphic card and/or driver? I am using a
Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS with nvidia-drivers 195.36.31.

Hartmut
That would be my guess. That laptop has:
$ sudo lspci -v
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series
Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
        Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 360b
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 29
        Memory at d0000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M]
        Memory at c0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
        I/O ports at 5110 [size=8]
        Capabilities: [90] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit- Queue=0/0
Enable+
        Capabilities: [d0] Power Management version 3
        Kernel driver in use: i915
        Kernel modules: i915

This system has an old nVidia:
            *-display
                  description: VGA compatible controller
                  product: NV25GL [Quadro4 900 XGL]
                  vendor: nVidia Corporation

but I won't run 2.1x on is as it messes up my lightning calendar (2.0x
is not compatible with 2.1x). I've another system with the same card
that I can fire up later tonight&   test.

I suspect it's an nVida issue. I'm currently testing an old Sony Vaio
866Mhz/384Mb w/Ubuntu 10.04 and I just loaded up the same
<http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/tinderbox-builds/comm-central-trunk-linux/1280109797/>
on that system. Fired up SM and set the fonts to 20, went to the
tinderbox link
(http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showbuilds.cgi?tree=SeaMonkey) - no issues.

That machine has an old:
01:0a.0 VGA compatible controller: 3Dfx Interactive, Inc. Voodoo 3 (rev 01)
        Subsystem: 3Dfx Interactive, Inc. Device 0057
        Flags: fast devsel, IRQ 3
        Memory at de000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=32M]
        Memory at e2000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=32M]
        I/O ports at d800 [size=256]
        Expansion ROM at e1ff0000 [disabled] [size=64K]
        Capabilities: [60] Power Management version 1
        Kernel driver in use: voodoo3_smbus
        Kernel modules: i2c-voodoo3, tdfxfb

If that old crap card can run/view w/o issues then I'd suspect an nVidia
driver problem.

I'll try to other nVida machine w/Quadro4 nvidia-96 later this evening
if I get a chance.




Gary, Could you try a build from:-
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/nightly/latest-comm-central-trunk/
?
No issue from the laptop w/intel:
Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:2.0b3pre)
Gecko/20100725 SeaMonkey/2.1a3pre
<http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/nightly/latest-comm-central-trunk/>
seamonkey-2.1a3pre.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2   26-Jul-2010 01:22        15M

It will be awhile for the Sony Vaio desktop with the 3Dfx Interactive
card... it's installing updates for Ubuntu 10.04.
Bang goes the idea that the hourlies may have fixed it, or been volatile-different. Looks more and more like a proprietary-conflict, eh?
