Anybody having got the AA-fonts working in KDE-2.1.1 with the 4.0.3-1 X
packages provided by progeny???? I'm not able to get it going, using KDE
packages from kde.debian.net. Everything looks ok, I have the option for
AA-fonts in the control center, but it doesn't work..... Any ideas?
Regards
Robert
