Disable Hardware Acceleration on 11.60

When i look into opera:config, there is no option "enable hardware acceleration".

It is crappy fonts and styles when it is on. I'd like to switch it off.

Opera 11.60 does not have hardware acceleration. It's Opera 12.00 which would include Hardware acceleration and WebGL support. This is a site-specific issue.
Windows 7 SP1 x86 edition and Windows XP Service Pack 3.

I see. I am using GDI++ for many years. In 11.60, it is not work at all. I think something might change its engine.

No it's still the same. Opera 11.60 still only supports GDI/GDI+. DirectWrite support is coming with Opera 12.00 as part of DirectX-based acceleration as per an Opera employee's comment. Please give any example URLs you are experiencing this issue on.
