This is indeed a pretty unsightly part of VW. Linux just isn't the child of love there :-)

Holger Kleinsorgen implemented an interface to the Xft libraries which give you proper anti-aliased fonts in VW and
which is included (or should I say hidden) in the Contributed parcel list.

From the parcel manager, go to Directories->Contributed->Xft and load the Xft-DesktopIntegration parcel. Save&quit and
restart the image.
