[Bug 305394] Re: No subpixel smoothing

[NikhilNK]

This problem still exists on Jaunty.  Here are the details.  However if
I start FF3.5 or TB3 with gksudo (as root) subpixel smoothing works like
a charm.

Display settings: 
using "Subpixel smoothing (LCDs)" 
Hinting : slight
Subpixel order : RGB


Linux hostname 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:57:59 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
