Just to bump the issue: I'm on Edgy now and the needed command changed slightly to: sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config And the solution to this problem IMHO would be a GUI option to activate this. And just my opinion in the discussion of "what should be default": I always read messges of users, finding of the native hinter as ugly and the autohinter as beautiful. Never heared of the other way round. But I might be wrong here...
