The mozilla version that rh9 includes uses the gtk2 libraries (which has aa thru pango), where as the default toolkit for mozilla is gtk1 (which does not have aa fonts). Looking at the spec file for rh9's mozilla you will see they include these options with the configure command:
./configure <your other options> --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2 --disable-freetype2 --enable-xft
actually no, if you look at the spec file of 9's mozilla, you'll see that it doesnt say
--enable-default-toolkit=gtk2 --disable-freetype2 --enable-xft
instead it says --disable-freetype2 --enable-xft
Take it easy, Mikael
ps, if u prefer using binaries or src.rpm's you can also find those here: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/experimental/gtk2/2003-04-18-07-tr unk (date dir is the most recent one as i write this, but use the most recent)
Enjoy,

I just intalled Mozilla 1.4a under /usr/local then changed the /usr/bin/mozilla script to run that but the first thing I noticed is I lost the nice anti-aliased fonts.
I looked around and couldn't figure out why the new version doesn't use the better fonts.
Any ideas?
