Hi Geoff,

If you'd like to use Xft2 (which I suppose you'll have to in 2.4),
but don't want anti-aliased fonts, you can have Xft2 turn off the
antialiasing by  following the instructions at

http://www.xfree86.org/~dawes/4.3.0/fonts2.html#4

Or, to summarize what you'll need, edit your /etc/fonts/fonts.conf file,
and before the final </fontconfig> line, insert these lines:

<match target="font">
    <edit name="antialias" mode="assign">
        <bool>false</bool>
    </edit>
</match>
