I compiled XFree86/4.3.1 and installed mozilla 1.4 as package
and when I start mozilla fonts show up unevenly weighted (rounding
problems?)

I wonder if this is a problem with the installed fonts themselves, 
or with X11?

XF86Config looks like this (regarding fontpath):

Section "Files"

    RgbPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
#    FontPath   "unix/:-1"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/local/"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/CID/"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/"
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"   
    FontPath    "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"
EndSection  

I read somewhere of antialiasing can be switched on or of
but I forgot whether it was with X11, mozilla or NVIDIA driver
compilation.
