Compared to my Windows machine however, I think that the fonts look less appealing to what I am used to. So I need a pointer - is this due to 1) the video driver? the card is an ATI Radeon 7500, and I configured the driver 'radeon' which should be correct. 2) the X11 fonts? which one 'look best'? 3) KDE - how can I make it to use the nicer fonts? 4) Firebird? Regards, -PU
