Can it be that you both had Anti-Aliasing enabled ? If yes, disable it or use
XFree 4.2.1 which is known to work best with anti-aliased text fonts while
the standard woody version 4.1 is quite a bit unreliable with that. I built
the Qt packages for 3.0.5 without antialiasing enabled so that this doesn't
occur, but I didn't want to provide two different sets for Qt again just to
work around this on some chipsets and prevent most people to use antialiased
text fonts.
