Two problems, seem to be related. I deleted my kdmrc (kdm is the KDE login manager) and generated a new one with genkdmconf. After that, I have weird X issues: 1) some of the mouse cursors are too big. the normal pointer cursor and the text insert cursor, specifically. the weird thing is that the window resize cursor and the "hand over link" cursor are small. 2) fonts are waaaaay too small all of a sudden. I had to increase my font size from 11 to 18 point. this only happens when using the nvidia closed source graphic drivers. if i use the "nv" driver, the font sizes are normal again (i.e. point size 11 looks normal). What does kdm have to do with these seemingly X issues? how do I fix the problems? Thank you for the help.
