Install gnome-tweak-tool from the Software Center. Or the Terminal sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool if you feel adventurous ;).

Open it.

Then select Font.

Anti aliasing.

It's in Spanish but you get the idea.

    In Fedora 16 (gnome) I did it without any problems. But in Ubuntu 11.10(gnome) in System Settings -> Appearance I can't see any tab for fonts settings.
