Obviously "above", but which "above", 8? 7? That response was to comment 9's "Since post-comment 7 zypper dup on both i845G hosts, KDE does run, but with everything unusably small due to lack of the required content from those files", which I fully expected when written to get no response to. Because I did get an apparent response, I tried to figure out how anything you wrote previously was even related, much less answered, but failed to do so. > > Are you suggesting I should go back to the more difficult use of > > an xorg.conf file to globally control VertRefresh, DisplaySize, panning, etc., > > and leave xorg.conf.d/ content up to the package management system, that /etc > > isn't for global user configs any more? > That's the way it is done now, for corner cases like you always have with your > prehistoric hardware. Again your response as directly relates to my question is ambiguous. I still can't ascertain from your responses whether I am expected to be using xorg.conf or xorg.conf.d/ to globally force text and icons on a GUI desktop to a size legible for those with 25th or lower percentile vision; those who find it difficult to use X configuration tools to do the same on account of the chicken and egg nature of the situation caused in part by escalating physical display pixel density, X settings fonts in fact 7pt or less faced by those who require 10pt or more just to discern, much less be comfortable using. Not so many releases back, openSUSE had been using (10pt in KDE; elsewhere?) system and menu fonts, larger than most other distros (*buntu, Fedora, Mandriva: 9pt). Then openSUSE dropped them down to match the competition, removing yet another superior openSUSE feature. Devs with teenage eyesight (apparently most software and web site devs) don't get that people with poorer vision find it hard to make things bigger, especially since the death of SaX2 and new, resolution-flexible CRTs, in contrast to the ease with which those with good vision can make them smaller. As to "prehistoric": I certainly do not represent the majority of developers (or maybe all?), who apparently upgrade their hardware every generation or two, or more often, as many must to support new hardware as it becomes available. I represent those whose upgrade cycle is from 10, 12 or 15 year old systems to functional 6, 8 or 10 year old systems originally acquired during a period when vendors no longer shipped Windows media with each PC, leaving acquirers of used PCs or their original owners unable to legally reinstall the OEM OS on a new HD; hardware long out of use by most if not all devs, but legitimate for use of a FOSS OS intended in part to expand access to the internet to the financially challenged. Contrary to the opinions of many devs and users jaded by the speed and RAM supply of newer hardware, those who know no better can nevertheless still find KDE @600 MHZ with 384M of RAM usable. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
