Continuing with the font weirdness I've been seeing:
I can set XFT fonts like "DejaVu Sans Mono" for the 'default' face and
it looks great. However, when I set 'variable-pitch' to use "DejaVu
Sans" or "DejaVu Serif" the XFT engine is not used. To summarise:
(set-face-attribute 'variable-pitch nil :font "DejaVu Sans")
>> hover over something to get a tooltip, see that it's all
blocky and not anti-aliased
What's weird is that sometimes after trying to use different fonts for
the variable-pitch face, it will start using anti-aliasing again and
then everything works. I cannot reproduce when this occurs, and it
doesn't seem correlated with the font choice.
My Emacs version is: GNU Emacs 23.0.92.1 (i386-unknown-openbsd4.5,
GTK+ Version 2.14.7) of 2009-04-13 on lionel.metasyntax.net
Fontconfig version is 2.4.2 with XFT 2.1.12 (version numbers taken
from pkg-config output).
