I've compiled qt on Solaris 8 with Xft support, but I'm having the same problem as detailed in this post: http://mail.fontconfig.org/pipermail/fontconfig/2003-August/000581.html As in that post, GTK2 apps use anti-aliased fonts correctly, while QT apps do not. The qtconfig app shows that I have them enabled by default, yet they simply are not used/rendered. Turning on and off aliasing in qtconfig/kcontrol has no apparent effect. Interestingly enough, when I log into a Mandrake 9.1 machine, remote login to the Solaris machine, and run KDE apps remotely, the fonts *are* anti-aliased properly, and I can turn on and off aliasing in kcontrol and see the difference. So, I know the Solaris apps are compiled correctly, it just seems there's some unknown factor preventing the rendering of AA fonts in qt/kde on openwin. Does the fact that openwin on Solaris 8 doesn't support the Xrender extension have anything to do with it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | Jim Hranicky, Senior SysAdmin UF/CISE Department | | E314D CSE Building Phone (352) 392-1499 | | jfh@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.cise.ufl.edu/~jfh | ----------------------------------------------------------------------
