The chosen font size is a bit on the small side, actually quite a bit on the small side, so it's not going to look the greatest. For what it's worth, I'm using a laptop with an LCD screen, and the appropriate subpixel smoothing for LCDs option is chosen.

I've never looked into it or thought much about it. I've wished that a few times, too. I seem to recall that there was a way of doing it (without going into something gory like stracing, or something similar, while Firefox was browsing the page). Perhaps this browser plugin: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4415/ And a link in a comment on this page offers something for Google Chrome: http://forum.weborum.com/index.php?showtopic=4134 -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
