I have just checked what fonts are installed on both systems. The 11.3 installation (with smaller fonts in the jpg) has "liberation-fonts-1.03-6.1.noarch" but no dejavu whereas the 12.3 installation (with larget fonts in the jpg) has "liberation-fonts-1.07.2-2.1.1.noarch" and "dejavu-fonts-2.33-6.1.1.noarch". So, it could be that 11.3 chooses liberation (since dejavu is not installed) and 12.3 chooses dejavu since it is installed. Probably, I should change the preferences in 12.3 and put "Liberation Sans" in front of "Dejavu Sans"?
What you should do is very much a personal preference thing. Simplest at this point is to make a change in your KControl fonts panel. You might be happier trying other things first: 1-try installing liberation2-fonts and restarting 2-try installing fetchmsttfonts and restarting 3-making a copy of the actual /etc/fonts/conf.d/58-suse-post-user.conf (not the symlink) called /etc/fonts/conf.d/57-post-user.conf, rearrange the font lists to suit your taste, and restart. Any of those can redefine the aliases according to what's actually installed and the order in the lists. If you haven't already, you might first try tweaking the anti-alias and sub-pixel hinting settings in KControl fonts. I use a 57-post-user.conf with Droids at the top of each of the 3 lists, and leave the font family choices in KControl at their generic defaults. That way no matter which login I use, the font families used are the same. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
