Hi guys: I have a problem. I've wanted to make an anti-aliased Gnome 1.4 desktop on my box, so I afford a Geforce 2 MX 400 and a 17'' Samsung Syncmaster 753 and installed gdkxft. Following a extremely helpful how-to I've found on the web (thank you very much, its author), I've got rid of RedHat's (7.3)xfs, and I'm using X straight to render fonts. I've made a directory to my TrueType fonts and put the path on my XFconfig and XFconfig-4. However, when I try to launch X, it crashes telling me a message that occurred a problem of redundancy between the modules libfreetype.a and libxtt.a, both located in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules. They both have a TT_"something". Conclusion: I can't have TrueType fonts anti-aliased as urw ones, for example. I can have Times New Roman anti-aliased as "monotype", but not as "microsoft".
When I try to launch X with freetype and xtt, X crashes. When I try to take off freetype, and launch X (Gnome), it becomes frozen. I'd like to have TrueType anti-aliased on Gnome 1.4, could someone help me to do that? May I have to recover the xfs? In addition I'd like to say that when I comment the XF86config"s and XF86config-4's line that is located the xtt, or I remove libxtt.a from /usr/X11R6/lib/modules, I get an amazing AA desktop, without TrueTypes (but with urw, monotype, doesn't recognize Adobe ones in fact), though. It says to me they are 2 bytes fonts and can't be corretly displayed. When I pick one of them, nothing of AA appears, but an ugly desktop with tacky fonts. Could you save me? Thank you, guys.
