xubuntu dapper: UI Font in Firefox 1.5 too big

[Lennart]

Hi,

I'm using xubuntu dapper drake and since a while I noticed that the font
for the user interface of firefox is too big. I have a size 9 verdana
font configured in the xfce user interface settings. All my applications
use that fonts (including thunderbird) but only the font in firefox is
just too big. It looks like a size 12 verdana. I did a google search and
one possible solution I found was setting the environment var
MOZ_ENABLE_PANGO to 1 but that didn't do anything.

Anyone else having this problem?

The same problem here, but in my case after an update...

have you thought of going up a notch with your screen resolution?

No. I fail to see how that would fix anything at all.
