Hello, Philip
I guess I did leave that impressions.
I just used Konsole and Gnome-terminal as an example.  Actually,
everything in my Branch 3.5 install of KDE has bad fonts.

Here are three examples of bad looking fonts:

http://www.afolkey2.net/Projects/screenshot-KMenu.jpg
http://www.afolkey2.net/Projects/screenshot-Konqueror.jpg

Here is an interesting one that I just thought of doing:
http://www.afolkey2.net/Projects/screenshot-TwoKonquerors.jpg

In this screenshot, the Konqueror on the left is compiled from SVN
Branch 3.5.  The other one is Konqueror that ships with Fedora 7.  Both
of them are open to my home directory.  Also, both use the Sans font
size 10.

If you have any more questions, I would be glad to oblige.  Again, this
is the first time that I've had an issue like this one, and I've been
using Linux since Redhat 7...

Have a Great Night,
Steven P. Ulrick
