hi Mike, I believe you can't get anti-aliased fonts with vncserver because it doesn't support OpenGL. You'll probably get an error message similar to this one: Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":3.0" when you try to start an application which normally has anti-aliased fonts. AFAIK the only vnc server implementation which has the GLX extension is xf4vnc (http://xf4vnc.sourceforge.net). I have no personal experince with it but I'll appreciate yours if you're going to give it a try. -- Jan Suchy
