Re: Huge fonts on certain RH9 Applications

[Julius Smith <jos@xxxxxxx>]

This happened to me, and I finally traced the problem to bad dpi settings 
for my monitor.  Go to the menu-path System Settings / Display / Advanced 
and look at your DPI settings.  They should be on the order of 72 or 100 
dots per inch.  Even if it looks good, you might measure your reset it for 
good measure, but CHECK IT.  I decided I must have entered my monitor 
dimensions in the wrong units at some point to cause the problem, and then 
didn't notice it for a long time because only certain KDE controls seemed 
to get fouled up. -- jos
