Now, restart Chrome to see the changes.
I've just started using Chromium in Slackware due to my aggravation with Firefox's CPU/RAM hogging tendencies and daily Flash crashes. Unfortunately, I was very dissatisfied with Chromium's font rendering. It is terrible in Linux. Thankfully, your little solution above worked 100%. I made a small change from "slight" to "none" with regards to hinting, but other than that it works wonderfully well.
