Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: fontconfig
I've 10-sub-pixel-rgb.conf in /etc/fonts/conf.d so I expect subpixel
rendering to be enabled by default in any application that uses
freetype/fontconfig. (Additionally I've enabled subpixel rendering in
the Gnome preferences).
Unfortunately at least xterm and gnome-terminal do not use subpixel
rendering.
I'll attach a screenshot showing (from top to bottom) gedit, gvim, xterm
& gnome-terminal showing the same text in the same font.
In the magnification (second attachment) you'll notice that xterm and
gnome-terminal don't use subpixel rendering, whereas gedit and gvim do.
Is there any way I can find out what is going wrong here? Any other
applications I should test?
Any help is highly appreciated!
