Hey Kevin,
I have almost the exact same setup. I would say that Netscape works fine,
but it is often hard to read. I find that I can change the settings to use
larger fonts (I can be specific if I email from home while in front of my
machine) but I seem to need to do this for every execution (the settings do
not stick). For me, this is a minor irritation as only the dumbest sites
seem to create important text in tiny fonts (redhat.com was one IIRC:) and
because I can go surf on .. ahem .. another operating system if aesthetics
matter.
There is a "font-deuglification" HOWTO at www.linuxdoc.org and some other
info about X. I'm near to totally useless with X and this documentation
didn't do much for me. I think I installed a TrueType font server and I
have true type fonts but all fonts still seemed pretty crappy in limited
futzing.
If you have better luck, let me know what you've done.
