Just confirmed on 8.10 as well. It seems things have gotten slightly
better.
I wrote a simple ~/.fonts.conf:

edit name=hintstyleconsthintfull/const/edit
/match
/fontconfig
fc-match -v DejaVu Sans

I have a thinkpad X60.
I turn on wheel emulation for the built-in trackpoint using the
following xinput commands:
xinput set-int-prop $DEVICEID Wheel Emulation 8 1
xinput set-int-prop $DEVICEID Wheel Emulation Button 8 2
When I do this, wheel emulation starts working fine.
Yes it's still there in 8.04.

Tobias, what do you mean by cross checking with KDE? Qt's interaction
with fontconfig and freetype is entirely different, and I don't really

That's causing the problems. If that file is removed, then everything
goes back to the happy defaults from before (arial - Deja Vu Sans,
