Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

Hi,

I have a problem that my fonts in Firefox are very, very crisp, and are hard to read. This is a brand-new Gutsy RC installation, and fonts were fine in Ubuntu by default.

I can't seem to be able to change them either. What can I do?

If there's any info or screenshots I could provide, I gladly will. Thank you.

Nevermind, I changing the 'smoothing' option under system - preferences - appearance - fonts - details did the trick.
