The problem with no antialiasing is due to a bug in firefox's default configuration. In order to have antialiasing and hinting, these two settings must be defined in the global rcfile (or hard coded at compile time):
font.FreeType2.enable must be true (it is false now) font.FreeType2.unhinted must be false (it is true now) A *temporary fix* is to set those variables correctly in your personal settings by using about:config. This is certainly a bug in firefox's build (hopefully to be corrected with the Beta2 packages). -- [edgy Knot-2 CD] firefox's fonts are uglified (not antialiased) https://launchpad.net/bugs/58511 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
