[csw-users] Firefox fonts

I have GNOME-2.8.1, Firefox and several other packages from
blastwave.org installed. They are very good mostly. However I have a
problem with fonts in Firefox. In general the fonts in Firefox (in its
GUI and in web pages) look terrible. I attached two pictures showing the
differences between Firefox and Mozilla. Both link to the same set of
libraries so I wonder how this could be. The fonts listed in the font
settings dialog of Firefox are not named by the fontconfig names but by
the X11 standard names.

Hope anyone can help me with this.
