[Qt-interest] Woes with X-Display

[Paul England]

Konrad:

Thanks for the reply.

1: The theme on the most offending machine indeed makes the app looks 
like it's using the Motif style.  What's worse is that it's mangling the 
fonts.  Not antialiasing, and not calculating their size right.  Even 
our pro-motif developer here said, "that's just awful".

2: Checking ~/.config/Trolltech.com on the two machines (1 local, 1 
remote -- there is no NFS, so they are different locations) I see that 
the machine with the good output only has two different settings, and 
neither look like they're related to styles.  In fact, I'd say they're 
input method related only.  See below.

[Qt%20Factory%20Cache%204.3]
com.trolltech.Qt.QInputContextFactoryInterface%3A\usr\lib\qt4\plugins\inputmethods\libqimsw-multi.so=2009-04-22T18:32:23, 
imsw-multi

[Qt%20Plugin%20Cache%204.3.false]
usr\lib\qt4\plugins\inputmethods\libqimsw-multi.so=40303, 0, i686 Linux 
g++-4 full-config, 2009-04-22T18:32:23

3: Not compiling w/ qt3support.  Veering away from qt3 altogether.
