Yes, this became noticeable to me starting from Hardy, I REALLY hate the
way it's being done now i.e., setting the rendering settings in gnome
appearance doesn't change everything, see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vte/+bug/204854.
Here's a workaround for Intrepid 8.10, that seems to work for me;
<!-- hintnone, hintslight, hintmedium, hintfull -->
<!-- Keep autohint off -->
<!-- Blurry fonts: Try rgb, bgr, vrgb, vbgr for "rgba" -->
<!-- Blurry: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-5060979.html#5060979
-->
<match target="font">
<edit name="rgba" mode="assign"><const>rgb</const></edit>
<edit name="autohint" mode="assign"><bool>false</bool></edit>
<edit name="antialias" mode="assign"><bool>true</bool></edit>
<edit name="hinting" mode="assign"><bool>true</bool></edit>
<edit name="hintstyle"
mode="assign"><const>hintfull</const></edit>
</match>
Having to hunt for a solution like this really time consuming.
