I did like this :
    open xfontsel , and choose a good font , then use "select" to copy , 
use xrdb to reload configuration.

Still got an ugly fonts .. This time , i tried with putty , i checked 
and thought it's pure X11 program. (checked the library it linked)

My ~/.Xdefaults is in attachment .

Now , i was wondering if i made some mistakes ..
ldd of CrossOver Main UI:

    libXdmcp.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXdmcp.so.6 (0x008e7000)

My Gtk (2.0+) Program has a good UI , everything fine .
If it's problem with gtk1's rc file , i would make mistakes.
