Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

My system is set for 124dpi (1400x1050 on a 14.1 inch lcd). Both X11.conf and Gnome setup and verified with xdpyinfo. Fonts and items are rendered properly for all applications except for Web pages rendered in Firefox. Text and content on web pages are extremely small. Layout.css.dpi has no effect when changed from -1 to 124. All pages continue to be rendered at 96dpi.
