My firefox bookmarks and tabs bar are extremely tiny on my new macbook air. Increasing the zoom doesn't help. Any ideas?

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. That didn't help. When I zoom on the browser, the page content gets larger, but the Bookmarks bar, URL bar, and Tabs remain tiny. Apple support didn't know what to do. Any ideas?

It is quite normal. Enter about:config in the url bar and set layout.css.devPixelsPerPx = 2. (I'm not sure if it works on Mac, though.)
