Look ma' the pretty LCD display mini PET

When I last saw WindowsXP' feature list I saw something called Cleartype which is a technology to make fonts ultra pretty on LCD displays and I thought... I've heard about that before. What Microsoft call a breakthrought invention is infact an old Apple invention called Sub-pixel sampling and guess what.. X supports it. All you have to do to get this amazing thing is:

1)
edit /etc/X11/XftConfig and append this:

match edit rgba=rgb

2)
turn off any font antialiasing you might have enabled in fx. KDE.

3)
restart X

4)
it's recommended that you try the following, replace rgb with rgb,bgr, vbgr or vbgr to test which looks best on your LCD scree.

5)
Enjoy

Does this have any effect on a CRT display?
