oh, I totally for got to read that sentence. I currently think about closing
this bug as "Invalid" as the default has to be configured via GTK and this is
outside the scope of GNU classpath to work with insane GTK configuration. On
the other side each runtime allows configuring fonts in fonts.properties ...
I will ask Graydon to comment on this.

Summary: Swing: font rendering is 'off'
Original Submission: The default font set on my machine for Swing applications
is quite ugly. There is nice anti-aliasing done, but the kerning is completely
off.
See attached snapshot of some radiobuttons. If you zoom in you should notice
that various characters 'touch' each other.
Notice that if I set another font for one widget, then that one renders fine.
Seems to be a bad default..

I though that the anti-aliasing part would give away I indeed have cairo
installed and am running a nice Graphics2D classpath.
MM: your comment ignores the last line in the original submission, perhaps you
an change the subject to more match the rest of the report..

For nice font rendering you need to install cairo CVS and enable its usage
explicitely during configure time. When cairo becomes standard we will built it
by default. Unfortunately cairo is a fast moving target and not very stable yet.
