I already know that it doesn't pass Acid3 yet, so I wasn't expecting much anyways.
And so I was quite shocked to see it miserably fail both Acid1 and Acid2. I'm not sure if this is because some extension that I have (unlikely). I'm running Firefox 2.0.0.13 on Ubuntu Gutsy (7.10). Take a look at the results of the test:
