I can confirm that this bug is specific to the Fedora build and persists in the most recent update (firefox-1.0.2-1.3.1). The latest installer build from mozilla.org (Firefox 1.0.2 for Linux i686, English) does not have this bug and continues to respect GDK_USE_XFT=0 to disable anti-aliased fonts. I wonder if you can use MOZ_DISABLE_PANGO=1 GDK_USE_XFT=0 to fall all the way back to core fonts. Actually, I should wontfix this because eventually we're going to remove bitmap font support in the form of core x fonts. (Disabling anti-aliasing via render and pango is still an option, though.) This is not a bug. GDK_USE_XFT is not the right way to disable AA, it's a way to enable the deprecated old font system which happens to not support AA. But the new font system has a no-AA mode. To disable AA, change the font configuration. Preferences->Fonts, or /etc/fonts/fonts.conf |
