All I read are, IMHO, workarounds, but not more. The problem lies with the fact that, even though firefox-3.5 honors font configuration as configured by fontconfig-config (/etc/fonts/conf.d, ~/.font.conf, etc.), GNOME does not use the same system to configure fonts, or at least font hinting. It seems KDE does (see bug #390975 (dupe)).
Is this a firefox bug? Or a gnome bug? Maybe neither. I don't know the considerations of gnome to not use fontconfig-config, but I think they want to keep all configuration in gconf? Maybe this should be a feature in firefox-3.5-gnome-support? -- MASTER - FF 3.5 font hinting does not honour gnome-settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/379761 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
