Hmmpf..

If, in KDE2.2.2 (on a shiny new install of Debian Woody), I turn on
anti-aliasing of fonts, I lose access to all my TT fonts.  The resulting
screen is horrid looking - I have to delete all the .kde files and dirs in
my home directory to get it back to a sane state.  My colleague who also
installed fresh has no problems.  I have a TNT2 card, he has an ATI.
