Turn off antialiased fonts in linux
I like sharp crisp fonts on the screen and usually do not like most antialiasing that looks fuzzy to me, especially on small fonts. Here is the .fonts.conf file you can use inside of your linux desktop’s home directory to turn off fontconfig’s antialiasing.
<?xml version=”1.0″?><!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM “fonts.dtd”>
<fontconfig>
<match target=”font”>
<edit mode=”assign” name=”rgba”>
<const>none</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target=”font”>
<edit mode=”assign” name=”hinting”>
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<match target=”font”>
<edit mode=”assign” name=”hintstyle”>
<const>hintmedium</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target=”font”>
<edit mode=”assign” name=”antialias”>
<bool>false</bool>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
