>Release:        FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p6 i386
>Organization:
SICS - Swedish Institute of Computer Science, Stockholm, Sweden
>Environment:
System: FreeBSD 6.2-RC1, kdebase 3.5.4

>Description:
On clean start of KDE (no ~/.fonts.config or any Xft settings in
~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals), Xft settings are incorrect
(anti-alias is off):

zeus> xrdb -query | grep Xft
Xft.antialias:  0
Xft.hinting:    1
Xft.hintstyle:  hintmedium

>How-To-Repeat:
Clean install, or remove ~/.fonts.config and Xft settings in
~/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals, and start KDE

>Fix:
I found this patch that fixes the problem:
