Summary: Smaller fonts in X in F8T3 after login https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=360901 ------- Additional Comments From nicolas.mailhot@xxxxxxxxxxx 2007-10-31 16:42 EST ------- You're probably hitting two things: 1. when you login your desktop is using system defaults, but after a short time it reads your preferences in gconf, so if you ever customized something font-related you'll see a transition when GNOME switches the settings from the values inherited from the system to the values you chose 2. older GNOME versions miscomputed a value used to size fonts (they assumed everyone had a 96dpi screen, which is not hardware reality). New GNOME versions (as the one in F8) use an xorg-computed dpi value (like KDE) so depending on your hardware, font sizes in GNOME are now bigger or smaller than you're used to (unless your xorg is misconfigured its DPI value is exact) What probably happened is F7 GNOME mis-sized fonts, you compensated in your user settings by scaling them down, and now GNOME correctly sizes font your user settings make them too small. Scratch your old user font settings and things should return to normal. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-fonts-list mailing list Fedora-fonts-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-list
