Title:
  gnome-settings-daemon does not respect setting of lcdfilter

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon

  I am using the lcdlegacy filter for subpixel rendering of my fonts
  (see http://martin.ankerl.com/2009/01/22/beautiful-font-hinting-in-
  ubuntu-810 and bug #153521). After upgrade from intrepid to jaunty, my
  fonts were again all blurred. After a lot of digging I identified
  gnome-settings-daemon as the culprit: even if i put
  Xft.lcdfilter:lcdlegacy into my .Xresources (and into
  /etc/X11/Xresources/local-unblur-fonts), xrdb -query shows
  Xft.lcdfilter:lcddefault. This is done in 40_xres_lcddefault.patch.
  The only way to change this seems to be to recompile the package (or
  binary patching /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon-2.0/libxsettings.so,
  which I have done). Imho, gnome-settings-daemon should not force a
  specific setting of lcdfilter or at least respect the current setting.
