Thanks Todd!  Interesting that you have your dpi set to 100 in the 
gnome-settings.  I guess that matches with what you have 
on /etc/X11/Xresources.  I have mine set to 96 dpi.

You can try it some day but remember to enable freetype in Firefox. Check the 
firefox configuration here (at the end):

I'm a rookie when it comes to fonts...but I guess that Firefox uses its own 
font renderer UNLESS you make it use freetype by enabling it in the 
about:config.

Again, thanks for taking the time to take these screenshots!

All the best,
Jorge
