Thanks, I'v been wondering about this for some time now myself, and my 
problem has been solved. (Just remember if you have a button for 
konsole in kicker, you need to set it to launch from a terminal.  At 
least for me.)

Still, this seems like a real hack.  I *like* haveing AA fonts, and 
would like to be able to use them in Konsole as well.  This was one of 
the things I was really hoping KDE2.2 would have fixed.  Is there some 
reason why this hasn't been fixed yet? It seems to be a problem for 
everyone...
