But in the new KDE 3.1.4 antialiasing seems to work perfectly. Unfortunately 3.1.4 introduced new problems on Solaris systems 1) the desktop won't shut down 2) notatun doesn' t work any more Currently I have installed both releses (3.1.3 and 3.1.4) in parallel. I start the 3.1.3 desktop but use the applications Konsole, Kmail and Konqueror from the 3.1.4 release. A little bit intricate, but this way I have both the nice fonts in Kmail, Konqueror an Konsole and can play movies and music with noatun. -- Guenter ___________________________________________________ This message is from the kde-solaris mailing list.
