I'm usingDebian-Sarge (stable) release along with X-window &KDE. When I powered up my PC today, the fonts in allthe X-windows were so small to the point ofunreadable. However, the icons and other graphicswere not affected. Fortunately, I'm able to get intoa shell, so I can do some modifications. But, cananyone tell me what file controls the fonts for X?BTW -- I don't know what caused this. The only thingI can think of is that I changed the environment toturn on Num Lock when entering KDE. After that I shutdown the system.Thanks,-- Matt __ Yahoo! Mail - PC Magazine Editors' Choice 2005 http://mail.yahoo.com-- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Extremely small fonts
Do you use KDM? If using KDM, it may cause that problem. You can change font size in KDE Control Center.
