Check the file .fonts.conf in your home directory. This is the stanza
to turn off RGB antialiasing:
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="rgba" >
<const>none</const>
</edit>
</match>
You also have to check if this setting has actually been taken over into
the X server resource database (restarting X or a new log in with
[xkg]dm is necessary after you change .fonts.conf):
$ xrdb -query | grep Xft
Xft.antialias: 1
Xft.hinting: 1
Xft.hintstyle: hintfull
Xft.rgba: none
