+&gt;<i> In mandriva sincepatent expiration in freetype, fonts display wasnt
+</I>&gt;<i> smoth anymore and appeared ugly fonts, this used to exist just in
+</I>&gt;<i> plf..
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> But since theres no patents issues pending, why not old rendering
+</I>&gt;<i> algorithms by default (disable bytecode interpreter), that way fonts
+</I>&gt;<i> will have a better rendering and look.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> This is most true for guys that are used to use small fonts, for
+</I>&gt;<i> example im used to use Sans size 8, like its now in mageia, they dont
+</I>&gt;<i> look very good and also appear smaller that if using bytecode
+</I>&gt;<i> interpreter disabled, so to be able to have a good rendering font
+</I>&gt;<i> look, i always repackage freetype2.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Why not Mageia start using also bytecode interpreter disabled by default?
+</I>&gt;<i>
