GNOME newbie's UI problems



Hello.

A couple of questions regarding the GNOME UI (I'm running unstable; not
fully grasping the whole desktop manager/window manager thing yet, but
I belive it's Metacity here):

1. Is there a way to tell GNOME not to antialias fonts in a certain
range of sizes? Currently I have to resort to KDE's kcontrol to turn
the antialiasing off in the 6-12 pt range...

2. Importing full GTK2 themes works (at least I managed to get the
Glossy P[1] theme simply by downloading it and clicking "install theme"
in the theme manager), but I don't know how to install an icon set. I'd
like to have the Tux 'n' Tosh[2] icons, but clicking "install theme"
doesn't seem to work in this case (clicking it and pointing to the Tux
'n' Tosh archive somehow removed the Industrial icon set, though).

3. How can I change the window title font? This option is grayed
out in the font settings (but I think it wasn't when I executed
gnome-font-properties from KDE).

4. Is there a way to use the "fixed" font in gnome-terminal? The font
dialog doesn't show it, as it's not a TrueType font, but I got used to
Eterm's -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-2
very much...
