Thanks, Chris!
I already had TrueType fonts on the system since RedHat 6, but I just applied
the anti-aliased fonts and poof! Incredible!!!!
I did see Keith's articles and was going to rebuild the RPM's with his patches
until you mentioned the "Style" config.
BTW, is anti-alias available in GNOME?
Thanks,
Brian
