How to get Pycharm font antialiasing working when using the ARM version of JDK 8?

Dear PyCharm,

My current system is: ChrUbuntu Trusty Tahr 14.04 on a HP Chromebook 14 G3 (Tegra K1, nyan_blaze), which has a 32-bit armhf CPU architecture.

The state of font rendering at this present time is:



I researched the problem and made changes to pycharm.vmoptions which are highlighted in the idea.log below:

Unfortunately, no luck this time.
