- One Caveat : XFree86 does not currently support anti-aliased
- font rendering. This is less of an issue at higher screen resolutions
- but the output is still less than optimal when compared with MacOS or
- Microsoft Windows.
+ Anti-aliasing: Starting with XFree86 4.0.3, XFree86 does now
+ support antialiased fonts. As of now, a lot of software does not
+ take advantage of it, but Qt (the toolkit for the KDE desktop) does;
+ so if you are running this version of XFree86 (or higher), Qt 2.3
+ (or higher) and KDE, all your KDE/Qt applications will use
+ anti-aliased fonts.
