With the update to freetype 2.5 the Infinality patches from namtrac:subpixel can no longer be installed. My understanding was that some functionality of the patches had been upstreamed into freetype 2.5, but at least out-of-the box the font rendering is really ugly. So is there any information on how to get a more usable (or preferrably) identical font rendering with the new library? I really don't want to go back to bitmapped fonts, especially as the ones I liked all have poor UTF-8 support.

Going into YaST's sysconfig editor, go to desktop, USE_LCDFILTER="lcddefault" , FORCE_HINTSTYLE="hintslight". To me at least it looks much better.
