bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/194624 is a dup of this, but has much good information and a fix- here is the process (for KDE3):
install the package gtk2-engines-qtcurve go to to system settings, Appearance/GTK Styles and Fonts, then select "use another style" and choose Qtcurve. before the fix worked, i had to restart KDE and firefox Miklós Juhász who helped with the fix in the other bug had a bit more info on the fix, i'll copy and pasted below for simplicity " This eliminates the firefox rendering bug and many other issues like sliders are chopped off at the bottom, etc. As far as I understand the problem is that Hardy uses QtCurve as the default KDE theme. However Hardy does not use QtCurve's Gtk2 engine, preferring to style Gtk2 apps via the Qt engine. QtCurve doesn't look that great when done this way - certainly nowhere near as good as its native Gtk2 port.
