Currently, I'm running PHP 5.0.4 (only because it's the only one I can
get to work on my FC4 x64 install!), but for some reason, using pixel
sizes under 8, or using bold fonts, makes the text look horrible.
My old host (1&1 in case anyone else has them..) had this working well,
but I have no idea what their settings were.

I've heard that editing the gd.h file to change the resolution from 96
to 72 helps, but I'm assuming I'd have to recompile something for that
to take effect, and I can't find a PHP-GD Source RPM for my arch.

What must I do to get everything smooth again?

Fedora Core 4, x64
PHP 5.0.4
PHP-GD module (separate RPM install)
Freetype 2.1
gd-2.0.33

Thank you.
