Tthe colors of the pixels to the side of the characters in the screenshot on the right are off, causing them to be blurrier and more 'shimmering'.
I only found this in gedit, nothing else. I was using a live image, and just tried it again with today's... but now the rendering seems just fine. I'll test it some more in the coming days to see if the problem comes back. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1290697 Title: Font rendering is broken Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Font rendering in Gedit (version 3.10.4) in Trusty is blurry.
