The default fonts are messed up in the terminals (unreadable) ... I think they know about that ... don't know how to fix that ... other default fonts are much improved ... hey, it's a BETA ... it's fun to play with ...

I'm fairly certain that font problem is related to the new anti aliased fonts Shocking Smile ... everything else looks much better ... and Q3A is running GREAT !!!

Not that I know how to fix the font problem but did you guys know that you can use your windows TT fonts in Linux? I don't know the exact procedure but it can be done.

DrakeFont is the tool I used to do that ... kind of a lengthy process though - one type of font at a time - and only Netscape benefited as far as I can tell (big improvement !) ... I saw one other person with the same terminal font problem ... no fix yet ...

One of the beauties of Linux. Fixes to problems come out almost daily.
