Public bug reported:

I just got the upgrade to Firefox 6 today and it is pretty much unusable
except in safe mode. It looks like it's not rendering correctly. Parts
of the application move around, it looks like my menus are at the
bottom, and when I want to click on something, I have to click just
below it unless it moves to a different part of the screen.

I tried disabling all add-ons, but it still does it. The only time it
doesn't is when I start in safe mode and the theme is disabled. I'm
using the default 6.0 theme but I've tried others, too. No matter what I
use, it does this.

I didn't have this problem in Firefox 5.0.1, which is what I was using
before I upgraded. Is the default 6.0 theme incompatible with Firefox
6.0?

I've attached an example of what Firefox looks like with the default 6.0
theme. Notice that the menu items are at the bottom and upside down but
also up at the top. This is the best it looks before you start
scrolling, hovering over buttons and doing other things you should be
able to do in a normal browser.
