What happens if you add the following to Section "Device"
in /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
Section "Device"
        Option      "AccelMethod" "XAA"
        Option      "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "true"
EndSection
I am using firefox 3.5 from www.mozilla.com without any problems. But
without the code above the Xorg process uses 100% cpu on some www
sites. In my opinion it is not a firefox but an xorg bug.
