Stan,

Thanks for your response.


Text widgets like email in Firefox and various sites, including 
bugzilla.redhat.com. Sigh.

Except for the fact that this is a rawhide system, it's been quite stable. This 
system has a lot of the package groups installed. I did this to look for 
package and packagemanagement bugs. I did the group installs "with optional" 
right after I did the install. The problem didn't appear until later, a couple 
of weeks ago.

I am sure it's something in the system because I rarely use Opera. I am a 
fairly heavy user of Firefox. They used to have an option for "Western" 
encoding but that has gone away and the view->text encoding seems adamant on 
"unicode", autodetect is off. Also, I removed as much of KDE related files 
(.kde* .config* .gtk* .cache* .gnome*) from my userid and then started kde 
freshly. Either I missed a file or it's not KDE. I'm going to try both with 
WindowMaker.


The keyboard is a USB HP version and has "US" on the back... I haven't swapped 
out the keyboard yet though. I'm grasping at straws.

Thanks again for your response.

George...

I was just using firefox in a fully updated rawhide, and I didn't see
this at all.  What specifically do you mean by 'text windows'?  I
assume you mean input dialogs, like the url line, etc. .  It is probably
a setting you have somewhere, but I don't know where that would be. Have
you looked in the configuration for firefox or opera to see if somehow
something changed the defaults?
