For some reason my DPI was set as 96 in Gnome Appearance settings, which
is totally wrong.  After changing it to the correct 128 DPI (which I
measured and which I get from "xdpyinfo | grep resolution", the fonts at
"10" are way too big.  I set them all to "8", and it seems to be about
right for a laptop.

Note that "10" is arbitrary and doesn't mean "10px" or "10pt" or
anything meaningful like that.
