I actually had a similar problem with the fonts in many Gtk and Gtk+ applications, so I changed the DPI value for the whole X system by defining Option "DPI" "96 x 96" in Section "Device" for your graphics card. You can also let X determine the DPI value automatically by entering DisplaySize 410 305 in Section "Monitor" for your monitor; units are in mm. To try which resolution fits best, you can use the followng commands: % xinit -- -dpi 72 % xinit -- -dpi 75 % xinit -- -dpi 96 % xinit -- -dpi 100 % xinit -- -dpi 115 If you're using a LCD panel, it should be obvious and match the real hardware parameters. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
