It's a long list of bugs. I am running the 3beta5 with 
"uber-flakey-overdrive" but am also am using an 
older 2.x version with FireBug and everything else working well.

Tuesday is 3.0 release day.. either wait and see if that fixes your issues 
or install an older version.

Having Opera installed is a good thing as well. :)
