Finaly there is a problem with the freetype2 package of mageia
You can see the screenshot, i had the same problem before

I installed in my system (mageia) the mandriva package:
[root at localhost dglent]# rpm -ivh --force lib64freetype6-2.3.12-1mdv2010.1.x86_64.rpm
warning: lib64freetype6-2.3.12-1mdv2010.1.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 70771ff3
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
1:lib64freetype6 ########################################### [100%]
and the fonts became normal.
There is a difference in the spec of mandriva and mageia of freetype2
Mandriva:
%define build_bytecode_interpreter 0
%define build_subpixel 0
%define build_plf 0
%{?_with_plf: %global build_plf 1}
%{?_with_bytecode_interpreter: %global build_bytecode_interpreter 1}
%{?_with_subpixel: %global build_subpixel 1}
%define name freetype2
%define version 2.3.12
%if %build_plf
%define distsuffix plf
%define build_subpixel 1
%define build_bytecode_interpreter 1
%endif
Mageia:
%define build_subpixel 0
%define build_plf 0
%{?_with_plf: %global build_plf 1}
%{?_with_subpixel: %global build_subpixel 1}
%define name freetype2
%define version 2.4.4
%if %build_plf
%define distsuffix plf
%define build_subpixel 1
%endif
It means that now the bytecode interpreter is enabled ? May be this create the distortion.
