It looks like that every time I open an app from YaST in XFCE, regardless of how I resize it.
What do you get from output of 'xrdb -query | grep dpi'?
No results whatsoever, either as regular user or as root.
What do you get from output of 'xdpyinfo | grep resolution'?
96x96 dpi
What DPI is reported on http://fm.no-ip.com/Auth/dpi-screen-window.html in a Gecko browser?
96
That image makes me think you have more than one problem, and the YaST Software window may be at least partially a side effect of a bigger problem. That image looks like it was taken of a full desktop, but it's a 1024x576 pixel (still 16:9, same as 1600x900) image.
I checked the display setting from inside KDE and XFCE... both report the monitor as 1600x900. I ran the Hardware Probe module from YaST, and it shows the monitor resources as being 1600x900 as well. I don't know if it makes a difference or not... but this system has two video controllers - one is an Intel HD 4000, and the other is an nVidia NVS 5400M. Honestly I'm not really sure which does what, other than they seem to 'just work' and they give *very* good performance (by my standards, anyways) under Win 7 Pro. No problems yet under other distros (Mint, Scientific, etc.).
It may be that XFCE/Xorg and YaST are somehow out of sync on screen resolution. The systemsettings window seems appropriate for its surroundings, but the YaST Software window obviously is as you say, insanely small.
Has your $HOME been used with Gnome3 or a late version of Gnome2?
Nope. The first time I posted about this was after a fresh install of nothing but XFCE. Had to fool around with some partitions and what not (going for quad boot) and re-installed, this time with a default KDE install and then from the Software Manager installed the patterns for XFCE. Whatever GNOME there is on this system got pulled in as a dependency, nothing more. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
