Ok, here is the issue. I am using a digital panel with 1280x1024 for my resolution. Everything is fine except the text for applications is too small and the text in terminal windows ....again too small. For ex. in a app. such as mozilla, firebird, openoffice etc... the menus ...file edit view tools help etc.. are too small. In thunderbird , i can increase the text size for the reading portion but again the menu or the portion that shows the subject, sender and date are too small for comfort. As i also mentioned the text for xterm or aterm is the same, too small to read comfortably. thanks in advance and have a great day. -- KroNiC~BSD kronic_bsd@fastmail.fm -- http://www.fastmail.fm - I mean, what is it about a decent email service?
