Hi,

I've just installed T at H on my Debian testing box and the exact same tiles fail
the test. You are right, fonts are not exactly antialiased the same way.
To say the truth, the font was really lacking the fist times but I found the
package which contains them (and is not listed on the wiki -- may this be
updated some way?).
May this come from the font package I installed? Is one containing the same
font as used on the samples (which one is it)? It would be better to use that
one in such a case.
