>>Yes, I have read this. And also used. I cannot remember why I disabled
it after the problems began. The ~/.fonts.conf is attached. It evidently
affects the fonts in the sense that they are not blurred now but still
I'm getting different fonts on every start - for instance, sometimes I'm
getting fonts without diacritics, in all cases they differ from usual
firefox/thunderbird default fonts.

>PS I once go font weirdness after upgrading nvidia-driver to some new-ish
version. I don't know that I got different fonts every time, but I got
different fonts (or something that looked like it) from the previous
version of nvidia-driver. In the end, I just downgraded to 1.0.8178_1
since the new version also had hideous interrupt problems which locked my
machine. This may be *completely unrelated* to your problem!
