I am running i386 version of firefox-1.5-0.5.0.beta2 on my X86_64 system and it is working fine with the new fontconfig-cvs (I do this so that I can use plugins like flash, etc which do not have 86_64 versions). So, it seems like something may be wrong in the X86_64 version of fontconfig-cvs.
I don't know. I re-upgraded to fontconfig-2.3.91.cvs20051017-1 today, after today's other rawhide uprades, and now I can't recreate the problem. I tried with my regular .mozilla/firefox/ configuration, and with that moved aside to get a vanilla configuration. The other thing I've done since yesterday is to log out and log back in, so perhaps there was a corrupted font cache thats been cleared now. Probably we should abandon this report unless I can recreate it. Changed to: WORKSFORME.
