Works for me.

Do you have any extensions (notably the view-source extension) enabled?

Does the garbled text open in a new window or in the same one?

(Note the correct URL seems to be linux.org.ru)
Comment 3 Ilya Chernykh 2008-09-25 09:26:40 UTC 
No, no 'view-source-extension'

Only the following extensions:

AdBlocker
Creative Commons license viewer
LiveHTTP headers
Favicon 
Choose style


The text opens in new window. Not always it's garbled, for example, for this page it simply opens a copy of the page in new window (possibly because no Cyrillic characters on thios page).
Comment 4 Reinout van Schouwen 2008-09-25 12:43:01 UTC 
Is gedit installed?
Comment 5 Ilya Chernykh 2008-09-25 12:57:32 UTC 
Yes... But it seems this bug is related to this:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/272785

I also have the same problem.

Cannot really reproduce this with Epiphany 2.30.x, even doing what the launchpad thing suggests. Reopen if you can still reproduce please.
