I updated freetype and freetype-freeworld from the stable F10 repo. Now
GIMP and Banshee draw fonts without anti-aliasing and subpixel-hinting.
The rest of DE and its apps OK.
I installed installed cairo-freeworld and libXft-freeworld from
http://www.infinality.net/blog/?p=5 but nothing changed.
I have these packages installed:
freetype-2.3.7-3.fc10 (x86_64)
freetype-freeworld-2.3.7-2.fc10 (x86_64)
cairo-1.8.0-1.fc10 (x86_64)
cairo-freeworld-1.8.6-2.fc11 (x86_64)
libXft-2.1.13-1.fc10 (x86_64)
libXft-freeworld-2.1.13-1.fc11.x86_64
gimp-2:2.6.6-1.fc10 (x86_64)
gimp-libs-2:2.6.6-1.fc10 (x86_64)
banshee-1.4.2-4.fc10 (x86_64)
$ cat /etc/fonts/local.conf
<?xml version='1.0'?>

# cat /etc/X11/Xresources
! This is the global resources file that is loaded when
! all users log in, as well as for the login screen
! Fix the Xft dpi to 96; this prevents tiny fonts
! or HUGE fonts depending on the screen size.
!Xft.dpi: 96
! hintstyle: medium means that (for Postscript fonts) we
! position the stems for maximum constrast and consistency
! but do not force the stems to integral widths. hintnone,
! hintslight, and hintfull are the other possibilities.
!Xft.hintstyle: hintmedium
!Xft.hinting: true
Xft.autohint: true
Xft.lcdfilter: lcddefault
Xft.hintstyle: hintmedium
Xft.hinting: true
Xft.antialias: true
Xft.dpi: 97
Xft.rgba: rgb
Would someone please give me a hint on how to make them work?
