I'm afraid this is out of date, except for the note in the reference that "no GTK programs will render fonts readably unless they have access to the custom font settings you can establish". When I try to run /usr/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon, I get the following messages, and font control doesn't seem to work. It looks like gnome-settings-daemon isn't compatible with the latest KDE font/theme control. $ /usr/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon ** (gnome-settings-daemon:8440): WARNING **: You can only run one xsettings manager at a time; exiting ** (gnome-settings-daemon:8440): WARNING **: Unable to start xsettings manager: Could not initialize xsettings manager.
