just a nice thing to know -
Firefox uses GTK to draw its menu and toolbar, as of course do Gnome
apps like Gimp and Gaim... This means when you use KDE Control Center
to set your fonts to a nice pleasing just-right font, it has no effect
on the toolbars and menus in the GTK apps. In my case they looked too
big and goofy next to the pleasingly rigid uniformity of my KDE apps.
Depending on your level of perfectionism this may drive you nuts. The
solution (after many many dead ends) was to create a file ~/.gtkrc-2.0
as follows:
$ cat ~/.gtkrc-2.0
gtk-font-name="Sans 8"
thats it! Adjust the font to taste. No messing around with FF settings
userChrome.css or xfontsel or anything else is needed.
$ yum install gtk-qt-engine
Gives you a nice KDE Control Center module for setting this (and GTK
theme) as well.
Be warned that the "Qt" GTK theme is a bit buggy, so I'd recommend you
avoid using that.
