Hello,

I recently installed the Xfree86 port (version 4.1) on my system (Release 
4.4). While the truetype module works fine, I can't seem to get anti-aliasing 
(AA) to work.
I followed the instructions in the FreeBSD Handbook without success. Here are 
the corresponding sections in XF86Config and XftConfig:

XF86Config:
Section "Files"
        RgbPath      "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
        ModulePath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/"
 
EndSection
 
Section "Module"
        Load  "dbe"
        Load  "dri"
        Load  "extmod"
        Load  "glx"
        Load  "pex5"
        Load  "record"
        Load  "xie"
        Load  "type1"
        Load  "freetype"
EndSection

XftConfig
dir "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
dir "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType"

When I remove the path for the TrueType fonts in XF86Config, they disappear 
from the system, even though they shouldn't (according to the Handbook)

I also enabled AA in  KDE2.2 of course.

Has anyone encountered or solved the same problem?

Thanks,				
	Malte
