i did an upgrade last night and also installed some new packages and now my fonts aren't correct, i checked in gnome-terminal and firefox and emacs and the fonts are appearing too small and even the window dimensions of gnome-terminal and emacs is too small now when they open! it has even affected my gmail when i open it now everything is too small and is readable but strains my eyes :( and i did NOT change firefox settings in any way so it must be the system wide X fonts.
i never had this problem in the past and apt did NOT ask or inform me it would be changing fonts, or changing X in any way. i use X.Org, 4 months ago I switched to it from XFree86 when i upgraded my testing release. i had no problems until now. i did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and that didn't help, i even removed the 100dpi font lines from /etx/X11/xorg.conf and /etc/X11/Xfree8 i looked in /var/log/dpkg.log to see what packages were updated last night and these looked relevant: xfonts-base xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi xfonts-encodings also i have: /usr/lib/X11/fonts -> ../../X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ (symlink) i have attached 2 files, my current xorg.conf and one from several months ago when i know it was working i'd really appreciate any help, i want my gnome-terminal and emacs to open at normal size and i want my fonts in all programs running in X to go back to their normal (larger) font size which doesn't strain my eyes. regards, zach
