i did recently update my mandriva 2007 install to kde 3.5.6, today i found that the fonts in firefox are super teeny, i thought it was working before though. so i uninstalled/reinstalled a few times... and when i dl'ed ff 2.0.3 and installed from console i got " (firefox-bin:10238 Gtk WARNING: ** Default font family does not exist " and a few other font related issues- google has not brought anything to me yet either.

did you try adjusting the font size?
go to view and text size

thanks ace, but fonts are so small, ?non existant?, menus are useless. - so the gtk thing make sense... i think, it like the way the window is rendered, the webpage seems to display fine, and it's not system-wide; konqueror is fine. I want the plugin support and compatability firefox provides though. --an answer to the "why not just use konqueror then?" question.

maybe you should try opera?, I know I like firefox as well, have you tried emailing Mozilla, to see if they can help?
