I have checked and found out that the files belong to the xinitrc package, and
changed the product so it points to it. I don't know who is the maintainer of
xinitrc to CC the information.

I wanted to have this as a bug as well, so it doesn't get lost in the cooker
Nirvana ;-). Quote from Craig Drummond <craig.drummond () lycos ! co ! uk>:

<quote>
I'm not sure if this applies to Cooker, but it does to mandrake 9.0:

Why is the Xft dpi setting hard-coded to 90dpi in /etc/X11/Xresources and
/etc/X11/xdm/Xresource? This causes fonts to have a different size between GTK1
and GTK2 apps. i.e. specifying a font of 12pts will use the X res (usually 75 or
100) for GTK1, but GTK2 (which use Xft) will render at 90dpi.

Why not just start X at 90dpi in /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers by passing --dpi 90. This
way *all* apps would be using the same resolution.

Craig.

I can confirm this problem. I haven't found any way, how I could actually change
font sizes for gtk1 apps (except of cource .gtkrc file, but there
seems to be no helper program to do this, and I don't know the config
entries...) Some kde apps seems to have this problem as well.

The problem: the above solution only applied to xdm, gdm could be
similary patched (/etc/X11/gdm.conf) and kdm/mdkkdm
(/usr/share/config/kdm/Xservers).

Regards,

Reinhard
