I believe you need to have anti-aliased fonts installed first, e.g.
the fonts/ms-ttf package in pkgsrc. I could be wrong, but that's what
I've always done first. (I'm speaking as a NetBSD user, I don't use
Solaris.)
A Google search turned up the following link about Solaris, KDE, and
anti-aliased fonts:

Hope this helps,
