I had this problem too, I upgraded from 7.10 with alternate CD. The gnome-terminal and fluxbox menu font both had the problem.
In my laptop, i fixed it as following: 1, cd /etc/fonts/conf.d 2, sudo rm 10-hinting-medium.conf 3, sudo ln -s ../conf.avail/10-hinting-full.conf then restart gnome-terminal, it works! -- font in terminal does not resemble font in preview https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190848 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
