I had to do a complete install as opposed to an upgrade. Previously I ha true type fonts working fine. I followed the same procedure and now true type fonts and anti aliasing works fine in KDE3 and KDE 3 applications but not in Netscape 6.2 or Opera 6B2. Both of these worked fine with SuSE 7.3, I do not think the problem is with Netscape of Opera but my setup. Can anyone tell me where I may have gone wrong? thanks in advance joe

I know opera depends on qt-2.x whereas kde3 depends on qt-3.x. It could be that the qt2 that is installed does not have XFT support compiled in. This would explain why it works with kde3 and not with opera, but I can't explain why it doesn't work with netscape. You might also do a:
echo $QT_XFT
As long as it is set to something it should be alright. Try running netscape or opera from a shell and see if any error messages come out.
