Hi!
  I just tried to update XFree CVS to their HEAD (versioned 4.2.99.1) 
and I don't have AA at all! I see "Initializing the built-in extension RENDER"
like normally in the Xserver log, I don't see any errors in .xsession-errors,
but no AA!
  And KDE looks wrong - there is a big spacing between lines. I never saw it
before, now I know how ugly it is :-).
  I simply moved my X directory out and returned the old one (with plain 4.2.0
- I backed it up first) so I have AA back.
  Does anybody know the reason why it doesn't work ?
                                              With regards, Pavel Troller
