Answer 1

After hours of searching and experimenting, I finally found a working solution!!! No need to mess up with fontforge, no need to patch your jdk, which is not allowed on a corporate workstation.

1. REQUIRED Remove openjdk and install oracle jdk.
2. Download deb from http://ppa.launchpad.net/no1wantdthisname/ubuntu/pool/main/f/fontconfig-infinality/
3. Install it: sudo dpkg -i *.deb
4. Enable osx font smoothing: sudo /etc/fonts/infinality/infctl.sh setstyle
5. Reboot your system sudo reboot lightgdm

If you are an Android Studio (Intellij) user, try add the following lines to your studio(64).vmoptions:

-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on
-Dswing.aatext=true
-Dsun.java2d.xrender=true
