 |
|
hi folks,
after i did an | Code: | | emerge --newuse world |
and rebooted into X, all fonts are now just far too big.
after having a look into kde's kontrollcenter all font sizes where just as before, but they appear almost twice as big.
of course i did some googeling before i wrote this topic, but haven't found anything usefull so far.
any ideas, hints or anything similiar are very, very apreciated!
muchas grazias
alex

It would be very useful to those helping you if you could give us a list of packages that were emerged when you did the emerge -N world. You should probably be able to generate such a list by doing: | Code: | # emerge genlop
# genlop --date yesterday --list |
One thing that can act as a master control of font sizes is the DisplaySize option in the Monitor section of your xorg.conf file. I have mine set to: | Code: | | DisplaySize 520 195 |
but it is unlikely that these would be the right settings for you. |

I haven't used DisplaySize in my config since i remember and i had no problems on any of my linux machines.
Is it possible, that it has something to do with my 16:10 resolution... but as i said, everthing worked fine 2 weeks ago...
cheers
alex

| You re-emerged xorg-x11. This is probably what caused the change. It probably has something to do with /etc/X11/xorg.conf but I am not sure. You might be able to ask a more specific question now or even poke around yourself. |

Finally, I don't know what messed up my configuration, but after following this HOWTO, everthing seems to be back to normal.
