Recently I've had problems with the font size in Xwindows on remote boxes, and eventually found out this:
$ xdpyinfo |grep dimensions
dimensions: 1280x960 pixels (433x325 millimeters)
The dimensions are way off (since this monitor is a standard 17 inch) and therefore the DPI are wrong, making all fonts very small.
A way around this was to explicitly specify a XF86Config-4 file using the option:
XF86CONFIG_FILE = "XF86Config.whatever"
But this is not ideal. It has happened at a number of installations now.
