Antialiasing in 3.1

[Robert Kratky <kratky@rob.cz>]

hi,
i've been trying to figure out how to make antialiasing work on my 
debian woody (xfree 4.2.1 + kde 3.1 + qt 3.1.1).

everything seems to be in order, i've got other X apps antialiased, even 
kdm is aa'ed! yet the desktop refuses to comply...

only glitch is when i try to access kde's font manager, it tells me 
'file does not exist and the directory is not writeable' (or something 
to that effect - i'm using a localized version). then it let's me 
through and the fonts in the preview window are again aa'ed just fine.

anybody's got an idea what i'm doing wrong?

thanks,
robert
