anti-aliasing on firefox and thunderbird.

You have a good trail to follow for your problem in the other messages...
For my problem, with regards to anti-aliasing... I have one computer running
kde that I can't turn on "sub-pixel hinting". The option is under the Fonts
tab in control settings, but it's greyed out... I'm not able to tell why...
Any hints? (pun intended)
To use anti-aliasing You must have card with driver that allows to use
RGBA colorspace in hardware mode. Currently new cards using that
colorspace, but some older use only YUV* color spaces. Some cards on PCI
slot with 2 MB memory and first cards on AGP slot using only YUV* color
spaces. If you have such card, you can only emulate subpixel hinting,
but not all drivers allowing to do this. If you can't use subpixel
hinting, that will be problem of the driver or older card. Try to verify
/etc/X11/xorg.conf for driver - is it realy driver for Your card, or
just replace G.C. with some newer...
