Unreadable Font Size for GDM Login/Password

I think that this is a problem with the detection/setting of the font
size. On my 1920x1280 monitor everything is clearly readable.

I can confirm that the bug still exists in Jaunty. I experience it out-
of-the-box with a fresh Jaunty installation on a System76 Leopard
Extreme. There is just a single monitor, with resolution 1920x1080
(actually an HDTV). The fonts in the options menu and username/password
field are about 5 or 6

I'm using a different theme, happygnome-list, but I tried the equivalent
of the fix suggested by Sun Wukong. My username and password entries
are now a good, readable size, but to accomplish this I had to set the

This is not fixed in 7.10 Ubuntu. Default installations of it (as well

I've seen an even more severe case of this.
The font *really* is unreadable.
Only 3 pixels high, on my Sony XBR4 (40 inch 1920x1080).
After setting display size in the monitor section of xorg.conf, it got better.
It is readable now, but still way too small.

Unreadable Font Size for GDM
I think this becomes an upstream issue. It would seem like a "Good
Thing" to have fonts sizes completely unchained from hard pixel counts.
Ken?
If it is viable, we should push this upstream and get some opinions on
it, as I don't know of a way to do this with the current implementation.
Sincere
Kenneth, then why are the default font sizes after login in pixels
rather than cm/inches? And why do all other elements on the login screen
(including the login box border itself) have fixed pixel sizes? The
login box font seems to be the only thing that is relative to something,
and it goes wrong
Using a fixed pixel size would be a mistake, as on very large
resolutions it would be tiny.
I have no idea why this is happening but it sounds like the Xserver is
not reporting the correct resolution or such.

I must say that I have more or less given up on this. On one computer,
the font is huge (compared to the other fonts). On the other, it is
still tiny (next to unreadable). It seems that since the released fix
sizes have become a bit bigger in all cases, but this still means fonts
are much too big i
This bug persists. On one laptop my gdm font size is normal (just like
the gtk font size on apps), and on the other laptop, the font size is

circumstances that 7 would be really small. But it seems that GDM

I think size 14 or bigger for both the labels and the text box would be
better for desktop and lapop displays.
This would make more certain that the label and the typed username are
readable. This is important.
For small screens like PDAs there are separate projects (GPE, Familiar,
etc) that can
Noticed that backporters got subscribed. Is there something that we need

Thank you for your work on that. GNOME themes use "Sans 12" for that
entry, maybe the Ubuntu theme should do the same?

Confirmed for clean install of Dapper (as well as Dapper-Upgraded-From-

manually setting a font size for the password/login box in the Human
