Hi all,

I just installed a new mint vm and I want to disable font smoothing in 
firefox.  I absolutely despise this feature.  I realize this is highly 
user dependent.  But, I want to see every little pixel in every letter 
on the screen.  If it's a slanted line, like in the letter W, I want to 
see every little jaggy.

I can never remember how to disable it when I do a new install.  I've 
already disabled it in the Mint appearance panel.  But, firefox has it's 
own setting you have to tweak.  Anybody know the magic spell?

Sincerely,

Ron
