Hey guys,
I've been trying to solve this problem ever since I did an upgrade on my
system. Currently, I'm running KDE 3.2 in Sarge and ever since I did the
upgrade, I've been having this weird font problem with the "login manager."
You can view the screen shot at

I also was checking out /etc/kde3/kdm/Xservers and noticed that the first
line (that's not commented) looks like this:
:0 local@tty1 /usr/X11R6/bin/X -nolisten tcp vt7
as where the old file looked like:
:0 local@tty1 /usr/X11R6/bin/X -dpi 75 -nolisten tcp vt7
I actually like the new file better since fonts are bigger but I have a
strong suspicion that this is causing the weird font error. I'm open to any
suggestions on how to fix this problem. As I really don't know that much
about how KDE operates, please realize that this is the reason why I have
posted this problem. Any help or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

The most recent upgrade also turned anti-aliasing off for the
greeter. Perhaps that has something to do with the ugliness.
Alternate theory: I had turned anti-aliasing on manually; the defaults
haven't changed. The file is /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc.
