Bug Description
Choosing "Luxi sans" as the default desktop font in "Font Preferences" results in very unpleasantly looking characters. The line width seems to be uneven. Setting the "Hinting" option to "none" on one hand make things slighty better, but on the other things the characters become quite fuzzy. Please have a look at the attached screenshot. On some other Linux distro, "Luxi" fonts are the default, and with the same settings, everything looks great.

"Luxi sans" font sample screenshot ("Hinting" equals "slight"). Note the very uneven rendering especially for large, bold characters.
