How do you log on or start X? I use the graphical log-in screen of kdm.
I don't use ~/.Xresources at all (nor ~/.xinitrc or ~/.xsession) and my
Xft options get set to exactly what I would expect from the contents of
my ~/.fonts.conf:
$ xrdb -query | grep Xft
Xft.antialias: 1
Xft.hinting: 1
Xft.hintstyle: hintfull
Do you have any references to Xft in files in /etc/X11/Xresources or
/etc/X11/Xsession.d?
