Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs
The text on the default home page in Firefox (file:/
It seems that the CSS file for that page specified Helvetica as font, while the desktop and all apps use Sans which seems to be mapped to Bitstream Vera Sans. The latter looks quite sharp on Linux, while Helvetica seems to be rendered not that well (use xmag to compare them).
This might be a matter of taste, and also it probably has to take into account the design of that page, but I think it would be better if the home page would use the same font as the desktop does, or use a font that is rendered as crisp as the desktop font.
Ubuntu docuMENTORs :) Do any of you see this in Hardy with Ubuntu? I can say that in Kubuntu everything is fine.
