Re: font rendering like mandriva, fedora or slackware

is it not possible

It is possible, but you have to put in some effort YOURSELF

Here's a clue:  Take a look at Mandriva's freetype2 SRPM, and its bytecode option.

Re: font rendering like mandriva, fedora or slackware

Font rendering was one of the reasons I switched to KDE. I found it hard too to get fonts rendered the way I wanted in Gnome (I was used to Ubuntu's font rendering which is perfect IMHO). In KDE, settings are clearer and there is no need to install additional packages (apart from fonts of course). I know I am not offering a solution, I just wanted to share my experience.

Cheers
