1178285 - [E10S] Ugly font aliasing with Windows XP

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1172014

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Franck (Wip)]

Attachment: Actual results : font rendering E10S on

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:41.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/41.0
Firefox Nightly 41.0a1 - Build ID: 20150628030215

Content rendering seems to use grayscale AA for fonts.
See both attachments: a single browser with one e10s window and one non-e10s window.

May be linked to bug 1158575, however it does not depends on hardware acceleration: it happens whether HWA if on (forced in fact) or off.

This bug seems restricted to Windows XP, cannot reproduce on Windows 7 with Nightly 64bits.
