Are any of you running it on 64 bit linux and if so - have you found a way to fix the way fonts look?

I do when I browse Java and Scala code.
I'm not sure what problem you mean, but I have to run `wmname LG3D` before running idea, otherwise the fonts are not displayed at all.
With that, it runs fine; the only (minor) problem is that switching to another window and back to idea makes the cursor disappear and some point-related shortcuts stop working until I open any menu/window within idea.
I use a tiling window manager; I wonder if it claches with the Java UI library somehow.
For instance this is how Go code looks in my IDE: http://i.imgur.com/jcWVFuS.png
Some people don't like the blurry look but I have grown quite fond of it.
Personally I like to add this line to bin/idea.vmoptions
-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=false
which turns off anti aliasing, then use windows fonts (Verdana for menus, Courier New for code) inside the IDE.
