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> - Jesse
