Maybe you could rephrase your title like: "Broken fonts in firefox". I've tested this with my 11.10 (I don't know what you mean by source) and everything was fine. – math Dec 1 '11 at 15:48
I can make it look like your problem if I change my HDMI cable to a VGA cable using the same TV right now. Am using an Nvidia card but am guessing this is not an Ubuntu issue as more of a "What cable am using and output monitor". – Luis Alvarado♦ Dec 1 '11 at 15:49
