Hello, I run KDE 3.5.8 on a fresh installation of Kubuntu 7.10.
As a consequence of something I did (but I don't know what, because I'm installing a lot of packages and doing many tests, because I just switched from Opensuse to Kubuntu), now the visualization appear very ugly (see schermata1.png). I created a dummy user, and its visualization is ok (schermata2.png). In both screenshots I use monospace font with dimension 11. So I guess that I can fix the problem just editing some configuration file in my account. But which file??
Thank you for your help.
Go to kcontrol / themes / fonts and play with the antialiasing options (I don't know the exact menus in English since I use it in Romanian, but this is the idea).
The file you could edit is ~/.fonts.conf, but I don't recommend this if you can get what you want using the first way.
Also the fonts from your second snapshot seem bigger.
Thanks, but playing with antialiasing is the first thing I tried.
I solved the problem with a brute-force approach: I deleted a lot of configuration files and directories. So I don't know which one was responsible of the malfunctioning.
The fonts in the second snapshot seem bigger, true, but I selected the same font in both cases (monospace 11). It looked like everything was badly visualized in the first case.
