After lucid upgrade, fonts look jagged or too thin

[Francis J. Lacoste]

Binary package hint: firefox

I upgraded to Lucid (from Karmic), after I restarted firefox the fonts look jagged. Like if anti-aliasing wasn't working properly, or if they were too thin.

My proportional font is DejaVu Serif (that's my default KDE system fonts).

Compare the menus in Firefox and Konqueror, as well as the fonts on the page in the attached screenshot.
