Deuglifying Debian

gnomez:
I don't think X windows has support for Anti-aliased fonts by itself.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but you need QT/KDE for anti-aliased fonts.. for instance you can't have AA fonts in blackbox or enlightenment.  Am I correct in saying this?

asdf:
It seems that it does, because the fonts are antialiased (I didn't install KDE or GNOME). I want certain fonts not to be antialiased, because they look blurred and ugly.

The default font sizes are still too big, and the widget set is still weird-looking.. any suggestions on these?

voidmain:
Did you try moving the 75dpi font line ahead of your 100dpi font line in your xfs config?  That won't solve the truetype problem but it should solve the problem of the default fonts being too large..

asdf:
Yes that would work, but the TrueType default sizes are too large.

asdf:
After a little more experimentation, I made a little discovery.

Mozilla finds fonts on its own. I disabled freetype and shut down xfs so there would be no trace of TrueType fonts. Yet when I start up Mozilla, it's able to find the TrueType fonts. Not only that, it makes them ugly too!

That leads me to my question - does anybody know of a way to get mozilla to -not- antialias fonts?
