Anti-Aliasing on a BINARY XFree

Hello! I've tried a lot to make my xfree (qt and kde programs) support anti aliasing. I've read several howtos, and I've done it all except of one issue: Compiling xfree with defining the freetype2 dir to /usr/local . I'm using a binary XFree- Must I use the source and compile it myself if I

Hi Oren, Regarding the anti aliasing - you'll need XFree 4.0.3 - if you have Redhat, then you can download the RPMS from the Redhat's ftp site from the wolverine (Redhat 7.1 beta 2) directory. That is - if you're running Redhat 7 now. If you're running Redhat 6.2, then download the SRPM's and

Gentle people, Although the 2.4 is labeled as stable, there were many critical bugs following its release. I usually wait a while prior to upgrading to a new version. 2.4 is not entirely stable and may not become stable until 2.4.5. In my opinion, you should wait a couple of weeks and then

Well, Currently almost all the drivers in XFree got the renderer support (with the exception of S3 Savage - a really shitty chipset) Now - that doesn't mean it's hardware accelerated. If you have Matrox G200/G400 - then yes, it's hardware accelerated. Also - NVidia 0.9.8 drivers will have
