[SOLVED]Firefox or Flash problem

I just installed Arch for the first time, then installed firefox and flash and the new tab page on Firefox looks like this

But when I goto the page the fonts are fine
And the youtube player is screwed up a bit
Edit: Install ttf-dejavu to fix youtube

Everything else is fine.

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD not sure if I have the drivers... I didn't think about that.

Re: [SOLVED]Firefox or Flash problem

Why did you install all these drivers? Did you follow the Arch wiki when installing Arch?
Remove them and install only xf86-video-intel (I think this is the right driver).

Re: [SOLVED]Firefox or Flash problem

I think xorg installed them or xfce or something, how do I remove them without it taking forever?

Please follow the wiki - it's not perfect, but then at least you will be able to show us what exactly you have done and why.

Removing is much faster than installing.

Re: [SOLVED]Firefox or Flash problem

I fixed the youtube problem by installing truetype fonts.
After I installed and rebooted Arch, I installed the whole xorg package, which was probably why it installed so many drivers.
I completely ignored the post installation section in the guide because I had no way to access it, until I installed firefox.
