Here we go again. teeny tiny barely readable fonts. (I am also sight impaired - macular degeneration)
I am running SuSE 9.2, KDE 3.3.1. The tiny fonts are only in the gnome based applications. Firefox, NVU, and GQView. Now, I am talking ONLY about the fonts in the menus, dropdowns, URL bar, etc. I can change the fonts in the displayed material OK.
In a previous thread I asked about editing a userChrome.css file which supposedly would make the fonts larger in Firefox. Edited and placed in my chrome file didn't work. However, even if that had succeeded that wouldn't have helped Gimp & gqview.
I had this same problem a few years ago back in SuSE 8.0 and at that time it was either Joe Morris or Ben Rosenberg who advised me about a gnome config file. I fixed it with that app. For the life of me I cannot remember what it was. (gnomecc ?? or something like that ??) Ihave searched the archives and my several thousand saved "important" e-mails from this list with no luck. Does it still exist?? Someone told me to try gconf-editor. Doesn't work, get an unknown command. Can someone help me out here ?
Same answer I gave less than 12 hours ago here. If Firefox fonts are wrong, most likely your DPI is wrong.
