 |
|
My fonts in qt3 based applications - eg. amarok look great. But when it comes to qt4 based applications like skype, the fonts look really bad. Anyone has an idea why this might be happening and what might be the way to get around this. Or rather what I want to ask is how can I change fonts in qt4 based applications. In Debian, there is qt3-qtconfig and qt4-qtconfig. Is there something similar on gentoo?
Cheers
Rahul

Build qt4 with qt3support.
And build skype with qt-static.
And unmask the latest version of skype. (Just for fun, it works well, btw)
That fixes everything, because now qt4 applications use same fonts as qt3. Back to great looking fonts!

Must have been sleepy when I wrote that. Thanks for that, edited my post.
