I still cannot seem to get KDE to turn anti aliasing off for TrueType fonts. Having it on makes all the TrueType Windows fonts look either bold or fuzzy. It gives me such a headache to browse the web that I normally boot back into Windows in order to give my eyes a rest.
Go to Control Center > Look & Feel > Fonts, then uncheck "Enable Anti-Aliasing."
But then I'm unable to use the TrueType fonts.
Hmm... that's strange. Try opening up /etc/X11/XF86Config in Kwrite or some other editor and see if one of the font directories it mentioned is /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype . BTW, I'm assuming that is where you installed your truetypes, right? Anyway, if that is missing, open up a konsole, and type: kdesu -c "kwrite /etc/X11/XF86Config" Now in this "root" KWrite, add this line around the other FontPath lines: FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype" Finally save the file, and exit KWrite. That should do it. -Tim -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy R.
