#3 Some GTK widgets don't use antialias

[Emmanuel Turquin]

Hi,

I encountered the following problem on my Debian unstable:
Although the LD_PRELOAD is correctly set and my
binaries are linked with it (I checked with ldd), most
of the GTK widgets don't use antialiased fonts. The
weirdest is that a few widgets actually do display nice
antialiased fonts, but the vast majority don't. I
attached a screenshot so that you can have a more
precise idea of what happens.

Regards,

Emmanuel

I'm having this same problem - it's certainly something with
debian unstable because this doesn't happen on my slackware
box. I have it working /in/ galeon right now but not
galeon's toolbar's for instance, it's quite strange. -Dan

i, too, am experiencing this exact problem, also in
Debian-unstable. gfontsel shows AA-ed fonts in its list. i
have AA-ed fonts in galeon. but none of the toolbars, menus,
lists, etc. Not even Sawfish's titlebar.

ok, i think i've fixed this. the problem is that the
~/.gtkrc has "fontset" instead of "font." editing my .gtkrc,
removing the "fontset" line and replacing it with
font = "font selection spec from gfontsel" seems to have
done it.

note that this is documented in
