The fonts look correct to me, I don't confirm that bug.

[Bug 84346] Re: Font rendering bug in Gnome Control Centre sidebar
Well, it may be regarded as a low priority visual bug. I only reported it because it is rather jarring. The fonts are correct but because the hinting interacts with the darker background it essentially looks like a monochrome (black and background) font instead of having the gradations of grey that fool the eye into registering smoothness. -- Font rendering bug in Gnome Control Centre sidebar https://launchpad.net/bugs/84346 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

do you have any suggestion to make it better? would you prefer having no background color? -- Font rendering bug in Gnome Control Centre sidebar https://launchpad.net/bugs/84346 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Here is a screenshot. I used the screen magnifier to get a closeup of the problem. The mouse cursor was above the System button making it highlighted and raised. If you look at the letter 'e' in System and Other you can see that one has darker hinted pixels than the other (due to the difference in background ??). The difference makes the lettering Other look jagged. ** Attachment added: Screenshot with close up of font rendering http://librarian.launchpad.net/6439504/Screenshot.png -- Font rendering bug in Gnome Control Centre sidebar https://launchpad.net/bugs/84346 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

It's not on the Group label, but on the buttons in that section. From a quick glance at the code they appear to be a composite widget called a 'tile'. -- Font rendering bug in Gnome Control Centre sidebar https://launchpad.net/bugs/84346 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thank you for your bug. The Group label is not a button on my feisty desktop. Do you mean it happens with the caterogies?
