If you backport only firefox-3.0 and xulrunner-1.9 from hardy to gutsy, that's expected.
You also need to backport cairo (1.5.8) and fontconfig as they contain the sub-pixel LCD filter. Without those two, xulrunner-1.9 will switch to internal cairo at build time, which is not patched and then ff3 will have no sharp font as you described. -- [Gutsy backport] Very poor font rendering due to Cairo issues (ragression since FF2) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/189720 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
