Most people say that either installing 'ttf-ms-fonts' or increasing the Qt applications' fonts with 'qtconfig' helps.

What I find strange is that I just couldnt find any upstream help about this problem. Is there a useful forum or help for GE on linux?
Det commented on 2011-12-19 14:36 (UTC)
Dunno. It's fine by me. If I had some anti-aliasing it'd be perfect.
Actually, I tried with 'ttf-win7-fonts' (the-oh-so-successor of the apparently now deprecated 'ttf-ms-fonts') and I can't even tell the difference. This is a bit illogical since GE's now using the same fonts as my Win 7 one.
