The correct solution depends on whether you use Xft or old-fashioned X font rendering (assuming you are trying this on X11). GDK-2.0 respects the environment variable GDK_USE_XFT to switch to Xft font rendering and I'd suggest you use that option since it gives you AA fonts. Then you'll have to set up your XftConfig file (in /etc/X11 or /usr/X11R6/lib) so it specifies fonts for the "sans", "serif" and "mono" font aliases. Below is an excerpt from my XftConfig. You will probably have to adapt it to your needs.
