Re: Huge X-fonts in Frozen
Thanks: Since I use xfs, the order of the font path is in /etc/X11/xfs/config in the catalogue. By putting 75 before 100 as you suggested, I fixed my problem. Thanks again. Al "David S.

David, You wouldn't happen to know where xdpyinfo gets its info? More to the point, where might one change the default resolution for X?

Take a look at your font path with : cat /etc/X11/XF86Config | grep Font Make a mental note as to whether the 75dpi fonts are listed before or after the 100dpi fonts. Then, check your monitor default dot per inch output with: xdpyinfo | grep resolution It will probably say 75x75 dots per inch. You want the first font size listed in your font path (in your XF86Config file) to be the same as the resolution from xdpyinfo. So, if you have 75x75 dpi as your default monitor resolution, make sure that your font path in your XF86Config file lists your 75dpi fonts *before* the 100dpi fonts. Just edit "100dpi" with "75dpi" and "75dpi" with "100dpi". -- David S.

Once upon a time, I heard Albert Kinderman say > I am using xfs and xfstt. After the most recent apt-get update and > upgrade to frozen, the default fonts in X are huge. X and xfs are at > 3.3.6-10. I bet you have xfonts-100dpi installed somewhere! Try remove the package or put path to xfonts-75dpi infront of xfonts-100dpi in your XF86config or xfs config file. I think this issue has came up several times already. Chanop -- ,. | Just Debian ~ [EMAIL PROTECTED]| `' pgpxMJZB9WqQi.pgp Description: PGP signature
Huge X-fonts in Frozen
I am using xfs and xfstt. After the most recent apt-get update and upgrade to frozen, the default fonts in X are huge. X and xfs are at 3.3.6-10. What happened and how can I get back to some reasonable size fonts? Al -- Albert Kinderman California State University, Northridge Department of Management Science [EMAIL PROTECTED]
