Exclamation KDE 3.3 Antialiasing defective?


Hey-
i got KDE 3.3 installed and working. However, it seems that my fonts are no longer antialiased. They were before the upgrade. I know i have the setting turned on, but fonts just look fuzzy to me. ..and,no its not my contacts oddly enough, i cleaned them just to make sure...

if anyone else has experienced this, please post, and see if we can come up with a solution.

It it matters, my video card is a 128MB nVidia geForce 5700 Ultra, running the latest nVidia driver. Resolution onscreen is 1280x1024, but can only run at 60Hz (older monitor). But again, the antialiasing worked fine in KDE 3.2.1

thanks,
-myk

I got the same problem, so, here is the solution:
KDE Control Center > Appearance & Themes > Fonts > check the box Use anti-aliasing for fonts
then i configured with Hinting Style: Full

i hope this solve your problem too
cya =)

i already did that, but it just doesnt seem as strong as the older version.. I know its not just perception. Immediately after the upgrade, everything was just fuzzy..
