Hiya, all, I sent this email mainly to M17N developers(all kinds of, including myself), because comment area in request is not a good place to gather ideas and suggestions. anyway, it's still an open discussion. infinality (http://www.infinality.net) is a patch set against Freetype2, especially against its sub-pixel rendering. it's been developed by infinality team and used on Fedora for a long time. so stability is not a problem. It can significantly improve the display of almost any fonts in openSUSE, especially CJK fonts( they are almost the most complicated font sets in the world) . I've built a package and placed it in home:opensuse_zh, test results gathered from Chinese Community shows welcome. you can test it there. And really, to be honest, the sub-pixel patch existed in Freetype2 now is a draft work, sometimes a mess. it just enables sub-pixel, but takes no care of how sub-pixel rendering is applied to fonts. But it has disadvantage too, the most famous LD_PRELOAD warning in /etc/profiles.d/freetype-infinality.sh. It preloads 64bit library by default. so when you run some 32bit programs, there will be a warning in terminal( if you run programs using it), but the display is still good. that LD_PRELOAD warning, according to official, still can't be fixed by replacing functions. they haven't figured out a way to switch between architectures. and it has no *.csh provided. so any patches and fork are welcome, coz I know little about writing shell scripts. In my personal view, I think it should be replaced. but as it's a serious thing replacing a package source existing in Factory. so I need your wise advises.
