tried to run qtconfig to see if I could get the fonts to render and
there got a segmentatoin fault in loadFontConfigFont which makes me
think there may be some incompatibility with my system fonts. 
Interestingly enough the fonts render in non-qt X applications.  Is
there a standard font set that I should be installing??  Right now I
have what came with my linux kernel (2.6.8.1) and Xorg (6.8.2).  Looks
like qt might have come with its own as well.
