It uses the info the monitor provides about its size and resolution. For me, that meant that it found I was hooked up to a 1920x1080 42 inch HTDV monitor, and it concluded that it obviously should be using 53 DPI, which resulted in most fonts showing up about 5 pixels high. It took quite a while to find the fonts setting dialog so I could manually switch to 96 DPI and get fonts I could actually read :-). As soon as I could finally see what I was doing, I submitted this bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=377651
