Beside the point of the language there is one more think has to be taken 
into account and that is the smoothing.
I use Ubuntu on WXGA LCD screen and the best looking I got with 
monochrome setup so far. Earlier the font rendering was not easy but 
today to get the best effect on the fonts I only have to take away the 
smoothing (none) and add the hinting (full) and this way the system 
looks perfect on WXGA LCD screen. This does not apply to all fonts for 
some reason. Default fonts (Sans) are good now and Bitstream Vera family 
as well. I would not change them.
