If you want to eliminate the "jaggies", and be able to get your hands on a LARGE selection of fonts, a great idea is to get TTFonts going.
X (along with the Gimp) will handle TrueType fonts if you have a font server installed. RH6.0 has the TTF capability compiled into X already,
but I don't know offhand of any other distros including it currently. A free font server out there that I know works under rh5.1-5.3,
as well as other distros, is xfsft. The road to making this work was rather long and somewhat torturous (for me), so poking
around for other references on the net might help. Anyway here's the link to xfsft
Any questions just email me, i'd be glad to help:
