'Nicer' is subjective. I don't actually like the patented rendering, I prefer the non-patented. The above isn't actually referring to the patented stuff, anyway - just whether subpixel hinting is enabled by default. I think it's a sensible idea; surely LCD displays are sufficiently widely used by now that we could default to subpixel hinting in the GNOME font configuration, and that would be the best choice for the majority of users? -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- Fedora-desktop-list mailing list Fedora-desktop-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-desktop-list
