RE: [SLE] Anti-Aliasing: How do I do it?
I don't know, but I guess I can test it. The reason that SuSE didn't include it is probably because of two reasons: It's new and it's still considered unstable.

Hi Avi,
So, if I get the copy of QT from the KDE CVS, do I also need the KDE
CVS code, or can I just use 2.1? It's a shame that SuSE didn't include
that version of QT, since IIRC, 2.2.3 (the currently release version)
features the AA patch as a compile flag I'm pretty sure.

Thanks,
Tim

Having AA in X11 is not enough. Programs have to be modified to take
advantage of AA. The current KDE cvs tree has a module qt-copy which
support AA fonts in KDE. I am currently building KDE and when I am done
I will try the AA feature.
