Hi andrei_m, I've a symlink to ../conf.avail/10-hinting-medium.conf.
However, since writing the above and providing the image, I found bug
#190848.  Since my issue was only with gnome-terminal, I think that bug
is the problem I was having.  It's further explained in the referenced
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=142640  Basically, gnome-
terminal was ignoring some font settings.  A ~/.fonts.conf can work
around this.

Dear Ralph, looking at your screenshot, is it possible that your terminal is 
using medium-hinting
instead of full-hinting? If you go to /etc/fonts/conf.d, to you have a symlink 
to 10-hinting-full or to
10-hinting-medium? 

This does not affect Firefox though. 
Fonts in Firefox became very fuzzy --- Xubuntu 8.04.

I know this has been marked for fontconfig, but I think it may also have
to do with libfreetype.
