Have you installed some package called "fontconfig-infinality"? That's
a known problem that many people experienced when installing this
package. Even a developer of infinality could reproduce it (see
http://www.infinality.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=229). I don't know
if they ever fixed it.
Here is our bug report: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=708052

Check the screenshots if that looks like your problem, but the "green
halo around white text" description seems similar enough. :-)
There is no solution from us. This is a third party package, which is
not even our upstream (because we base ourselves on fontconfig, not
fontconfig-infinality).
