    See if the same happens with a different user. On my system I had to tweak FontConfig settings that was disabling anti-aliasing for some fonts which were apparently being chosen by the system when Qt apps were being ran. I don't experience this issue anymore, I'm using Mandriva.

    BTW: Do you remember what you tweaked ?

    Yes, I deleted /etc/fonts/20-mdv-disable-antialias.conf. But now I have it and the fonts are fine so something had to be corrected either in Qt or Mandriva.

    It was some font that I installed for some stupid reason... I removed it and all is normal again.
