Pango enabled or disabled?
I can confirm this on linux FC6. I see it on the front page of www.slate.com. Following comment #2 I unset MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO (which I had set to 1 for speed on my 900MhZ laptop)and the problem went away. So it is related to disabling pango. I see there is a pango update in updates-testing. Should I try that?
i disabled pango because of performance reasons and i get the unreadable webpages with this configuration. anyway i can confirm that the problem goes away by unsetting MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO.
