Check if X is correct about your screen dimensions and resolution by running: xdpyinfo | egrep 'dimens|resol' Then run echo "Xft.dpi: 96" | xrdb -merge and restart icedove. (Replace "96" with your DPI value.) If that fixes the font sizes then you can make it permanent by putting the Xft.dpi line into your ~/.Xresources. (On my KDE desktop I use neither gtk2-engines-qtpixmap nor gtk-qt-engine; the Xft.dpi setting seems to be enough to make the gtk applications render fonts properly. The Xft.dpi setting should also be honored by applications which are neither QT- nor GTK-based.) -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
