Default Re: Firefox 3.5 Just landed in Build Service
I am having a repeat of an issue I had a year ago with Firefox 3.0 font rendering in KDE3 in OpenSUSE 11.0 x86_64. I started a thread "Firefox 3 font rendering in KDE3". The issue was that fonts looked very thin in Firefox 3. The solution was to use gnome-appearance-properties to set font rendering as "slight" then start the gnome-settings-daemon on startup of KDE3. I just updated Firefox 3.0.11 to 3.5 using the Build Service and Firefox 3.5 has thin fonts. I uninstalled 3.5, reinstalled 3.0.11 and the fonts look normal again. Does anyone have any ideas as to how to make the fonts in Firefox 3.5 look "fatter"?
