QT_XFT is a good way to selectively *disable* AA for various apps, but it should
be enabled by going to the KDE control center -> look and feel -> style -> and then
selecting "Use antialiasing for fonts and icons".  When you restart KDE, you should
then have antialiased fonts, and you can use QT_XFT=0 to disable AA for apps like
konsole.  

Hope that helps,
