I had the same font problem. Turning on anti-aliasing
made a big improvement for me. Of course, you can
only do this in KDE so far.
To turn on anti-aliasing enter the K Configurator and
select Look and Feel. Then select Style. Around the
middle of the page is checkbox for anti-aliasing.
Enable that and restart X. You should notice a
significant improvement in Konqueror and KDE in
general will look nicer.
I haven't had success with Netscape yet, but I
understand there is a HOWTO now for cleaning up fonts.
I haven't had a chance to try it, though. It can be
found here:
