What does: $ xdpyinfo | grep resolution say? Recently on my system, something decided that my fonts should be 112x112 or something, which made most everything appear with *huge* text. I ended up modifying the Xservers configuration file for my display manager to pass "-dpi 100" to /usr/X11R6/bin/X to force 100x100 dpi fonts. -- You win again, gravity! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
