Possibly a red herring (and nothing to do with aliasing), but on exactly one of my machines it somehow thinks that 75dpi is a sensible size for a 20" 1600x1200 display (all the others find, and use, 100dpi). For my own desktop, adding the following to ~/.Xresources fixes e.g. the toolbar in icewm, and font size in urxvt. Xft.dpi: 100 Note that doesn't cover all the cases - I use gdm, so that still presents the login dialog with a tiny font, but I can live with that as long as there is only me using it. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
