It's possible to turn anti-aliasing On and Off. If you ask, say, KDE3 to use AA - than all KDE apps wil use it. Most likely, Qt3 apps will use it, too. On the other hand, GNOME (GTK) apps may continue to use non-AA text. To make AA available in GNOME apps, you need to install GNOME2/GTK2 (as GNOME 1.4 doens't support it) and enable AA in GNOME Control Center. Note that there are some apps (in particular - Mozilla/Netscape) which do not use GNOME/GTK and KDE/Qt libraries. All of those apps need to be configured (and, most likely, re-written) on its own to support AA. Latest Mozilla build support AA. You should check with your Linux distro wether Mozilla shipped by default supports AA or not.
