I have all the updates as of today from Rawhide. For the last several days, Firefox has not been displaying test correctly. When I open Firefox, I get Fedora Core 5.91 release notes displayed. However, only the underlined and bold text is displayed. If I scroll the page, all the text will appear and looks fine. As soon as another program get focus, the text disappears again. Clicking back on Firefox and scrolling the page will return the text. Is this OS, Firefox, X11, or ? Any ideas? I have an X86_64 system with NVIDIA card and use KDE.

Hello Jim,
I've got a similar setup to you (X86_64, Nvidia Geforce 4 MX 420, and running KDE). I'm using nvidia's drivers (version 8762 with the patch supplied from their forums) with the Option "RenderAccel" "false" setting (which gave me back my menus text). I'm experiencing the same issue with FireFox and Kconsole with text missing on some things and not others. I believe someone else is experiencing something similar (related in gnome) and that there is a bug submitted (check last week's posts, look for "video problems" or similar subject).

you will have to wait until nvidia releases a new driver which supports xorg 7.1
