** Description changed: Apparently the larger text rendered in the Ubuntu Font Family has broken kerning/tracking in the installer slideshow. The relevant slides are HTML files that can be found in the 'ubiquity- slideshow-ubuntu' source package at: - ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu-29/slideshows/ubuntu/slides/*.html + ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu-29/slideshows/ubuntu/slides/*.html This should be a manifestation of bug #617522 "does not use kerning tables at >20px (text-rendering: optimizeLegibility)" + + ubiquity-gtk is using webkit; webkit had a patch included a year ago + that enables the CSS "text-rendering: optimiseSpeed vs. + optimizeLegibility" properties in a similar manner to Firefox. It may + be enough to set these.
