Well I’m not sure what happened or why, but I’m having more issues with fonts.
I only noticed when I spent some time doing things other than watching DVDs. Like reading and coding.
I just started getting tired and sore eyes. I could only think it was the refresh rate or something wrong with the fonts. They did look a little crappy to me.
I switched to a console, and the change was immediate. Seriously, I just felt my whole body relax.
Ok, that could most probably be because there’s hardly any text on the screen, and the screen is mostly black, but there is definately something wrong.
I’ve been fiddling around with font types, anti-aliasing, installing different font config applications to changing the resolution and refresh rate of my monitor to adding Modelines and reconfiguring this and that.
I think the answer might be XGL. When I started an ordinary X.org /XFCE session, as opposed to the usual XGL / XFCE session, everything was sooo much clearer.
That means it’s time to toss out XGL for AIGLX.




So you think that fonts in XGL is worse than fonts in a normal Xorg session ?
