How can I get the size of the text on the desktop and elsewhere to be larger? I'm running an ATSC 1080i screen for watching HDTV and the screen size is 1920 x 1080 interlaced. The text tends to be very small (and the interlace doesn't help!). It's a pain to have to try to adjust the text size in each program or shell separately and it doesn't affect the desktop text.

On the menu: Preferences > Fonts. Crank up the size and choose different fonts, if you want.
Also, on the Details tab, specify the correct DPI. Fonts are then close to their correct sizes and I find they look a lot better.
