This is still a problem with Ubuntu Karmic!

Ubuntu Karmic's font rendering is completely unbearable out of the
box... Another issues that has popped up with Karmic is that Firefox 3.5
seems to ignore font rendering settings per user, and always uses system
default. So even when I set hinting to full in my user account. Firefox
still uses the crappy slight hinting...

Just remove:
/etc/fonts.conf.d/10-hinting-slight.conf -> ../conf.avail/10-hinting-slight.conf

And link the following instead:
/etc/fonts.conf.d/10-hinting-full.conf -> ../conf.avail/10-hinting-full.conf

And the problem is completely resolved. Such a trivial fix. I hope this
will make it into Karmic Final.
