I have looked into Edit/Preference and for the life of me, I am unable to determine why my menu-fonts are so tiny, like a size 6 or something. I cannot even read it. Seems that my Firefox is not taking the system font size although the system-colors are fine. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to correct this?
Do you use GNOME or KDE? Firefox is affected by GNOME font settings (gnome-control-center, Appearance, Fonts) I use KDE and for some reason I need to go into the (gnome-control-center, Appearance, Fonts, Details) panel and set the DPI to 96. Interestingly, xdpyinfo correctly reports my screen as 145 dpi and KDE apps look good without forcing the DPI in the KDE fonts panel. If you use KDE, you should also try to have this running in a terminal: /usr/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon otherwise, the settings will be ignored. When experimenting with this stuff, be careful because the refresh is not always automatic; it can become really confusing. Best regards. -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it
