There is no qtrc file for defaults. (There is only a default for new user accounts in /etc/skel/.qt) I have found a partial answer on Debian lists: enableXft=false is needed in ~/.qt/qtrc, supposedly due to a bug in qt. (This will let me use the fonts but I won't get antialiasing.) But according to the lyx FAQ (http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/FAQ/Qt), qt version 3.2.1, which is what I have, should be fine. Steve
