I just ran SaX2 to turn on DRI support, and now my fonts are huge. I checked the resolution, and it's still 1600x1200. The fonts in an xterm, or in xemacs are the size they always were, but the KDE fonts are much larger than before. It may not be related to running SaX2 except that I restarted the X server to do it. I believe a new KDE patch was installed this morning when I ran YaST. That may be the cause. Somewhere during the startup or login process I saw a message that said "using large fonts" or something similar. But I haven't seen it again. This is affecting the KDM login as well as my user login. It's really a problem because it's causing things to get pushed off the end of edit buffers, etc.
Does anybody have an idea what might have happened, and how I can correct it? I've looked at all the settings for the login manager, and they seem normal to me.
Dunno what happened. Possible factors you can adjust fairly easily include adjusting 'DisplaySize' in Monitor section of /etc/X11/XF86Config, or changing XFT.dpi parameter in /etc/X11/Xresources. -- "I place economy among the first and most important of republican virtues, and public debt as the greatest of the dangers to be feared."
