Yes, subpixel rendering / subpixel hinting is what you need to turn off.
It is detected by X. In my case, I can override my display driver (radeon) and
force it to see a CRT on primary head and None on Secondary. The actual setup
is LCD-panel in primary, CRT on secondary (laptop).

Check the file .fonts.conf in your home directory. This is the stanza
to turn off RGB antialiasing:

I've been getting strange color fringes around text when anti-aliasing

To try and make things look better, I tried disabling anti aliasing on
my favourite font via .fonts.conf and /etc/fonts/local.conf, but in
both cases it seems to be ignored. The gnome-terminal still shows the
font awfully anti aliased.

find much that explains what it's really for.. Some applications like
mozilla seem to be fontconfig-aware while others are not.

I am running Gnome2 and I would like to know what I have to do to enable
anti-aliasing (in particular, font anti-aliasing) in my environment.
Which are the options I have? Load freetype on X?
Thanks,

Check your path, it is wrong.
The correct one is /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType.
If you don't have that one either, the package you should get is
msttcore
ls me that I probably
didn't install them. Can some one point what packages
need to be installed to get both TrueType and
anti-aliasing going?
