This is my 1st time ever installing Arch Linux with GDM / Gnome desktop environment. I did not install 'gnome-extra' package because I don't want all the useless applications. I prefer to only install what I need. I am have been using an Ubuntu 10.4 workstations and got everything working on my new Arch system. It is very fast even installed the latest nVidia drivers from their site. My only issue I have is the fonts look horrible. I did go to 'System > Preferences > Appearance > Fonts tab' and set the fonts to 'Sub Pixel Smoothing' for LCD's but I am missing the smoothness and glossiness (Anti Aliasing) that Ubuntu had. My Arch fonts still look very rough and 1993'ish. I don't know what I can do to make my Gnome / Desktop environment appear more polished and cleaner. Do you guys have any suggestions? Do I need a specific WM or special decorative package? I work a lot on my workstation and need it to be pleasing to the eyes. The fonts I have don't make my system look very appealing. I know it sounds stupid but I really like my DE to be pleasing on my eyes since I use if for hours at a time... Thanks for any help!
