Anyway, if I point OpenOffice to an Xfree86 Xserver, I get anti-aliased fonts, but not with the vncserver as the Xserver.

They're seperate machines, so I'm hoping there is some package I forgot to install, or some config option that needs to be set so I can have anti-aliased fonts through the VNC server.


Forgot to mention package name and version:

ii vncserver 3.3.7-1 Virtual network computing server software



hi Mike,


I believe you can't get anti-aliased fonts with vncserver
because it doesn't support OpenGL. You'll probably
get an error message similar to this one:

Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":3.0"

when you try to start an application which normally has
anti-aliased fonts. AFAIK the only vnc server implementation
which has the GLX extension is xf4vnc (http://xf4vnc.sourceforge.net).
I have no personal experince with it but I'll appreciate
yours if you're going to give it a try.
