You seem to be mixing up X 3.3.6 (SVGA) and X 4.x.x (There the standard -regrettably non accelerated- driver is vesa) You stand a good chance of being even more amazed if you don't decide which version you are running and take the relevant drivers for that version... Lionel --- Peter Leftwich <[

[Newbie]no antialiasing with Luxi fonts

2002-06-23 Thread Denys Duchier
I am running RedHat 7.3, KDE 3.0. I can get nicely antialiased fonts using Arial and Verdana, but I have no luck at all with the Luxi fonts: no antialiasing takes place for them and no amount of fiddling with XftConfig seems to do any good. Can anyone help? -- Dr. Denys Duchier
