First, I apologize in advance for the cross post, but this topic has
been brought up on both lists and I think it is of interest to all
parties.

Just spent a bit of time on IRC with a guy in the #kde channel.  Seems
there is a problem with Anti-Alias fonts and XF86 4.0.2 as shipped with
OL3.1  He had me turn it off, and alot of the strangness and
instability I was getting has gone.  He also recommended a command line
structure to use when compiling QT from tarball.  Since I had src rpms,
I am trying to download the tarballs, I am just a bit nervous in thet
there is a -2 in the name of the Caldera rpms and the tarball does not.
 Is this important?

Also is it possible to extract the tarball from a src rpm?

The command line given for AA font use when compiling QT is as follows:

./configure -sm -thread -gif -system-zlib -system-libpng -system-jpeg
-system-libmng -xft -no-g++exceptions

The -xft was the option that was emphasized as being the point.

No there are 2 tarballs available for 2.3.1, one is the embedded the
other is the X11.  Which is the one to get?  I'm getting both, but I'd
like to learn about this a bit.

Again my apologies for the cross post,  Let the flames begin
