Same issue here, RGB and BGR give identical results, instead of the different ones like VBGR and VRGB. Attached are a few screenshots that clearly shows the issues.
In case it matters: I am using a multi-monitor setup with two monitors that have different subpixel ordering, so results will be blurry on one monitor either way, but that shouldn't stop Gtk or whatever is at fault, to respect the given setting. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot showing closeup of glyph" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0/+bug/703191/+attachment/1881639/+files/subpixelrendering-bug.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/703191 Title: BGR-ordered subpixel font rendering appears broken/nonfunctional in Gnome/GTK+ -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
