If I liked it better the way it was in RC1,
I already wrote about this here twice in less than 24 hours. :-p
I'm not seeing it. Could you tell me the Subject: header of the messages you're referring to?

This has nothing to do with GTK / Gnome, I'm seeing it just in the basic KDE components such as the toolbar, Konsole, the Control Center, etc.
Wait a minute... Are YaST's components KDE / Qt or Gnome / GKT programs? They seem to also show the degradation.
I suppose I could try to describe the changes I'm seeing. It appears that the basic letterforms are lighter in weight but the anti-aliasing is stronger. I suspect (but am not certain / do not know for a fact) that this is the result of anti-aliasing taking the place of proper hinting. In all my experience getting fonts under Linux just the way I like them, the hint interpreter is superior.
how do I get it back? What changed?
Probably most of us want to know. Maybe with a couple dozen threads on the subject somebody with a solution may show up to share it.
I filed a bug: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=227498 If the hinting default was set to something other than full this might not have been noticed by anyone understanding enough to file a bug about it. -- "Let your conversation be always full of grace."
