Try running the gnome-settings-daemon, it should tell the xsettings to
the Gnome applications. If that doesn't help or has unwanted effects,
try creating and editing ~/.gtkrc-2.0 and put something like that in it:
style "user-font"
{
font_name="Lucida 10"
}
widget_class "*" style "user-font"
# gtk-theme-name="Qt"
gtk-font-name="Lucida 10"
