I upgraded to X4.3 and now larger fonts are blocky.  Look at the "Not
Found" at http://hank.org/images/blocky.png

I've listed below my files section.  I used dpkg-reconfigure to create a new
XF86Config-4 file from the 4.3 package (assuming that the configure
script would best know how to configure X).

EndSection



I have to say I'm really sick of screwing with fonts.  Can someone
explain why, in 2003, fonts are such a pain in the ass to get working?
And why and "end user" needs to mess with it at all?
