[Bug 384081] [NEW] Firefox (Gecko) cutting upper part of some text lines

[Damiano Dallatana]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

A few days ago some strange rendering errors started appearing casually
on Firefox and all Gecko browsers I have installed (FF 3.5, Epiphany -
not on Midori [Webkit]). I am using FF 3.0.10 on Ubuntu 9.04 with it-IT
environment and amd64 arch.

I attach two screenshots of the main page of the www.apache.org website:
note the title "The Apache Software Foundation" cut in the upper part
(but also "Latest News" has the same problem). It seems that removing
the "line-height: 1;" property for these texts solves the problem.

The same problem happens with the Ubuntu website, but seems to be a
rendering problem (scrolling the page makes the problem appear on other
lines -.-) and the bug disappears when trying to get a screenshot.

[I am using opensource ati driver on AMD Radeon X1250 (RS690) integrated
chipset]
