Re: Font anti-aliasing

[Johan Ehnberg <johan@ehnberg.net>]

Looking at

http://people.debian.org/~walters/gnome2.html

There's a short FAQ:

How do I get antialiased fonts in GNOME 2?

     Add the following line to /etc/environment:

GDK_USE_XFT=1
	

     Also, if you want antialiasing in GDM, add the following lines near
the top of the /etc/init.d/gdm file:

GDK_USE_XFT=1
export GDK_USE_XFT
	

Cheers
