I was upgrading my frankenstein etch lenny one day,( do sometimes use gdebi for smaller packages, but synpaptic for the rest) So I decided to upgrade flash and Iceweasel. to 3.5 as well. If there was a way to spoof flash versions and in cases firefox versions I would be happy.  As I just hate seeing messages that say "you have become obsolete because our thirst for more money and a few more bells and whistles caused an entertainment error- please upgrade now". That was a real perception.

So after doing so I started to take more notice of the fonts on some pages like hulu drop menus. Which was very small. Now I was using a 1024x768 res; because I hate anything higher. So I did research on this, didn't find the root cause. So I had to put Iceweasel in a position to dictate the font minimum and default sizes. I had to do the same thing with epiphany. That didn't really solve the real problem. It just ignores the cause. So in my thinking something is causing the web fonts to be mis-rendered. I will point out for me in Iceweasel adv fonts I found minimum font size default set to none. When I changed it to the lowest setting of 9 it stopped the abnormally small text. I thought I would include a before and after image. But like you can guess all the text is custom now until the real cause can be found. thanks.
