Public bug reported: Hello everybody,
I am using Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS and the newest Firefox package 11.0+build1-0ubuntu0.10.04.2 available in the repositories. In order to get readable fonts in Firefox, I disabled anti-aliasing by removing the symlink 10-antialias.conf from/etc/fonts/conf.d. After a while, I noticed that certain pages won't display correctly, for example: http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=ekiga&searchon=names&suite=stable§ion=all http://www.dreamtheater.net/ My first thought was that the issue has got something to do with the rendering of the page itself, because after pointing Firefox to one of the URLs, only a blank page is being displayed, but the source code of the page is viewable by typing Ctrl+U. Re-enabling anti-aliasing by recreating the symlink 10-antialias.conf and restarting Firefox fixes the issue (except that after that all fonts look blurry). I am not sure if the issue is caused by Firefox itself or by some incompatibility with the underlying libraries which are used for font rendering.
