Do you have antialiasing turned off in control center -> appearance and themes -> fonts? No, of course not, and in fact KDE applications have antialiased fonts at all times. I also have this issue, since KDE 3.5.4. (3.5.3 behaved as expected.) As Vasilis observed, it seems to be due to KDE setting "Xft.antialias" to 0 in xrdb. The problem persists even when I turn off "Apply colors to non-KDE applications" in the "Colors" control panel. To me, it seems like very broken behavior for KDE to even be messing with that setting at all -- Qt obviously ignores it (all my KDE applications respect the antialiasing settings in "Fonts"), so why should KDE care? There's been a change in 3.5.6 that probably affects this. Can you test again with 3.5.6 and report on whether it works? Sorry for the delay, I was hoping that maybe Debian would ship 3.5.6 packages -- but then I noticed that they've been incorporating patches from it anyway in the current 3.5.5 packages, so I decided to give it a try anyway. So yes, right now the font configuration dialog sets XftAntialias in kdeglobals to the correct value, and everything is working fine. As far as I'm concerned, this can be closed. Thanks. Hi, I'm closing this bug since it hasn't been an issue for ages now, if anyone still has these problems then feel free to reopen. |
