Since oS 11.3 mozilla-xulrunner192 doesn't use system cairo. Many of us has lcd monitor and use some "patched" cairo packages (subpixel) to get fonts looking good. All gtk/gnome apps use system cairo but Mozilla Firefox _doesn't_. Can We revert this option in mozilla-xulrunner192 spec file? from %define has_system_cairo 0 to %define has_system_cairo 1
Short answer: No Long answer: Using system cairo caused several regressions even causing crashes at startup and some other occurences.
I'm aware of that subpixel issue but actually the Firefox versions which don't use system cairo have the needed patch applied to its own cairo. I tested that on my system (and turned it back off as I don't like it) and you are the first one reporting again that it doesn't work anymore.

- fixed sound notifications through libesd (bmo#579877) - updated libproxy implementation after upstream review (bmo#517655) - added lcd filter patch for internal cairo
So is it really not working currently? Other experiences?
Wolfgang I see that mozilla-xulrunner192 is patched with lcd filter patch, but please look on my screen: http://img440.imageshack.us/img440/6603/firefoxcairoe.png
Firefox using system cairo look strongly better (only for me?). I know there were some legal issues with subpixel hinting for freetype2/cairo due to MS/Apple patents... -- Pozdrawiam / Best regards, Mariusz Fik, openSUSE Community Member
