Running Hardy 8.04.2 and Firefox 3.0.5
In Firefox, using the Page Up or Page Down keys on my keyboard either causes the pages to display inconsistently or has no effect at all. By "inconsistently", I mean that pressing the Page Down key causes the browser to scroll down half a page, or two pages, or go all the way to the bottom, or scroll up, or something else entirely.
The Page Up and Page Down keys work OK in all my other applications as far as I can tell.
This problem is not limited to version 3 of Firefox; it was happening on v2.x.y.z also.
This does not happen with Firefox under Windows XP running on the same hardware.
I was unable to find anything about this issue by searching the Kubuntu forums with various combinations of the words "problem", "page", "scroll", "up", "down", and "firefox".
Thankx in advance for any pointers.
