Re: [newbie] huge fonts!

Sounds like a good excuse to me to buy a
bigger monitor ;-)

But admittedly, there may be another solution.
Is it just a problem with fonts, or is everything
big? Perhaps the screen resolution got reset.

If it's just with fonts, try using the Control
Center to change the font sizes.

Hi, I run mandrake 8. I changed X to the 4.x version using mandrakes setup program 
(can't
rem the name, but, it let's you change the version running. So, I changed from 3.x to 
4.x
and now X has HUGE fonts. Everythings giant. What should I do?!

Thanks for any help.

Do you run by any chance a Virtual desktop sized rather big (Virtual 
setting in XF86Config-4)? Then this is typical. But why panic, just 
change the font sizes in kcontrol to sth. small.
I run X with the following settings and I had to reduce font sizes to 6 
and this looks perfect:

Subsection Display
Depth   24
Modes   1024x768 800x600 640x480
ViewPort0 0
Virtual 1920 1440
#Virtual2048 1536
