Public bug reported:
I use Lucida Console 9 (a Microsoft TrueType font) as my terminal font.
It worked great in Hardy, but after upgrading to Intrepid, bold
rendering looks awful, as if the bytecode hinter has gone haywire. This
is puzzling because the other TrueType fonts I have tried look fine, as
does non-bold Lucida Console. I am attaching screen shots to
demonstrate the difference between hardy and intrepid.
My font settings:
Anti-aliasing is disabled.
Hinting is set to Full.
Sub-pixel hinting is disabled.
(All these are set in the xfce User Interface Preferences. I normally
use xfce, but the same problem is visible when I log in using gnome.)
