Subject: [gentoo-user]  big fonts after Xorg update
Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2009 01:22:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <hb8aqm$7lu$2@ger.gmane.org> (raw)

Hi,

I just updated from xorg-server 1.3.0.0-r6 to 1.6. After the upgrade I 
see a lot of applications have now much bigger fonts then they used to 
have (the fonts and font sizes of course are the same - they just appear 
bigger). Examples are KDM, Konsole, most KDE apps (GNOME applications 
seem not to be affected).

The increased fonts looks a bit as when I connect via VNC to the diplay 
manager session (with the Xorg VNC module). I had the same effect 
already when I tried to upgrade to Xorg 1.5 (which was why I had to 
revert back to 1.3).

This is a VMware virtual machine with the VMware tools installed and 
running.

What can I do to avoid the "font increase"?


Thorsten
