If you don't like antialiasing in your fonts, you can get absolutely clear rendering following the next steps:
Code:
su
apt-get install msttcorefonts
wget http://www.auriance.com/docs/fonts/fontconfig.tbz
tar xvjpf fontconfig.tbz -C /etc/fonts/
Then press
Code:
ctrl+alt+backspace
for rebooting your session and configure your fonts in KDE - Control Center - Appareance & Themes - Fonts - Adjust all fonts... (select Tahoma 8pt, for example) and uncheck using antialias.
Does it work for you? |

Depreciated and desastrous when used in a Kanotix/Debian Sid system. DON'T!
This overwrites a core Debian package and will destroy your package database for sure.

I don't understand what you are saying. I didn't have any problems when trying this and no package was overwritten at all. In case you want to keep you previous configuration, you only have to backup the folder "/etc/fonts/". This is the only method (for me) to get this clear fonts:

From the package mentioned:
Zitat:
<!-- PC-BSD - Fonts configurations v.07112006-->
Basicially your "solution" links non-MS-fonts to MS-fonts, and turns Antialiasing off for most of them. If you like the result (I do not, it actually really looks like default Windows, and it does no good for your eyes on most modern monitors), you can get the same result in a clean way:
Visit KDE control center and turn Antialiasing off, and select the MS-fonts of your choice as default.
Zitat:
I didn't have any problems when trying this and no package was overwritten at all.
You have been lucky - problems will come for sure with the next dist-upgrade. There might already occur some mis-functionality some parts of KDE.
Again, simply unzipping configuration files from another operating system into Debian is no good idea, and also not necessary at all.
Greetings,
Chris |

knithx,
when it works for you, fine, but please do not advice sth here which is pure and utter nonsense. Sorry for the harsh words.
There is a clean way to get what you want:
1. apt-get install msttcorefonts does NOT install tahoma
2. for tahoma you need a licence (I have tons of unused, so I can demonstrate what you are insisting on)
To get tahoma, you need to do:
1. install tahoma from your Windows-CD (unused licence) through kcontrol as root
2. ctrl+alt+F1
3. init 3
4. fix-fonts -e
5. dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config (answers: native - always - yes)
6. init 5
7. choose "tahoma 8" throug kcontrol
8. disable antialiasing between 1p and 16p
9. it looks like that: http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/1173 ... omeda1.png
This is the clean way to get your intended look on Kanotix/Debian.
You do NOT have to copy any alien configuration files into /etc!
