It sounds to me like you're *missing* fonts, not that you necessarily
need to resize them. I needed to install the following font packages (and
then update the /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file):
msttcorefonts
xfonts-100dpi
xfonts-75dpi
xfonts-base
When I installed mozilla-firebird it also affected my font packages, but
I'm not entirely sure what it installed. I do know that after I'd
installed it I'd lost xbase-clients but then gained a whole bunch of new
font smoothness.
My XF86Config-4 file has the following lines:
Section "Files"
FontPath "unix/:7100" # local font server
# if the local font server has problems, we can fall back on these
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc" # xfonts-base
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType" # msttcorefonts
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/encodings" # xfonts-base
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/encodings/large" #xfonts-base
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/util" # xfonts-base
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi" # xfonts-100dpi
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi" # xfonts-75dpi
The path may vary on your system, but those are all of the packages I have
installed (plus whatever mozilla-firebird did).
Hope that helps!
