Well no thanks, this is not a solution. I like them Medium hinted as they are. Kevin, are you maintainer of freetype-freeworld? As you may known, Ubuntu is using patches to cairo and libXft to achieve smooth, nice fonts on LCD display - this looks just superb. Check out my screenshot at http://www.hlacik.eu/screen2.png . I have patched Fedora10 libXft and cairo packages with ubuntu patches and have them available in my own repo which is located here http://linux.hlacik.eu/ It can be added by installing http://linux.hlacik.eu/fedora/i386/hlacik-release-10-1.noarch.rpm unfortunately i am providing only i386 and SRPM packages. Can you please look at those SRPM's or simpler, install hlacik-release package which will update freetype , cairo, libXft for you? After that ,please do not forget to add "Xft.lcdfilter: lcddefault" to /etc/X11/Xresources and restart X server. When you will then set in gnome Appearance, Fonts - Subpixel Smoothing (LCD's) you will see that difference. Can be eventually those packages being added to rpmfusion repo? Thanks in advance!
