Hello Bjorn, I'm currently using the subpixel repository from: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/muzlocker/openSUSE_11.4/ subpixel Yesterday I was reading an article on this topic: http://en.opensuse.org/FAQ#Subpixel_Hinting and then I modified my /etc/fonts/conf.d as follows: sudo ln -s /etc/fonts/conf.avail/10-autohint.conf /etc/fonts/conf.d/ After adding this symbolic link, I noticed immediately that my desktop look&feel changed considerably, but at the moment I cannot say if the problem was resolved. I think now the black appears more brilliant. Thanks for your feedback!
