Problem still exists in Linux 1.0 preview. It no longer existed in the Windows 1.0 preview.

WFM Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 Bob, can you still reproduce with a nightly trunk build?

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20050910 Firefox/1.6a1 ID:2005091022 Works for me. Please reopen if reproducible in the latest builds.

Or better yet, let's dupe it. :) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 236589 ***
