Gentoo Blocky Fonts

Question

So, I've fresh installed Gentoo with Gnome. Ever since then I've had super blocky fonts like this enter image description here

I'd appreciate any help on this, or really just a link to anything else because googling gets me no where.

EDIT My problem is with Firefox, Atom and anything seeming to use a web releated thing at this point. Image: http://screencloud.net/v/iZIj

Would you mind to post a full sized picture also? http://imgur.com/ could be used. — VL-80, Feb 03 '15 at 18:35
Your problem is in Chrome, right? (if so, you should mention it in the question). did you see this?http://superuser.com/questions/726132/chrome-33-shows-ugly-blocky-pixelated-fonts-in-linux?rq=1 — meatspace, Feb 03 '15 at 18:39
@RainbowDashDC, yes. Because this picture is too small to see the problem. Also, as meatspace advices include more specifics - do you have problems with a specific program or system wide? — VL-80, Feb 03 '15 at 18:45
@RainbowDashDC, thanks. Try installing [gnome-tweak-tool](http://packages.gentoo.org/package/gnome-extra/gnome-tweak-tool) and play with the fonts settings. — VL-80, Feb 03 '15 at 19:03
I see. Try to change default font in Firefox settings and see if it changes anything. — VL-80, Feb 03 '15 at 20:34
Hmmm. I use Gentoo too (with XFCE) and never run into this problem. Try to follow instruction given [here](http://neugierig.org/software/chromium/fonts/). It is not about Firefox, but it might help. Try to install more fonts. — VL-80, Feb 05 '15 at 02:44

So, eventually figured this out:

eselect fontconfig enable 70-no-bitmaps.conf

or if already enabled:

eselect fontconfig disable 70-yes-bitmaps.conf
