I was bemused that the Firefox folks have sort of the same knee-jerk
presumption of guilt towards the gtk that some Ubuntu folks have towards
the nVidia driver as the root cause of all display problems.

See also Bug 191791, where you'll find more reports and an interim
solution.  As noted, xdpyinfo (147x145) matches my display (1920x1200,
13"x8.25").  Gnome font preference is 96DPI.  Changing layout.css.dpi to
96 resolves the problem.

See comment #40 in the Mozilla bug report for a response.
