This problem is far worse as I see it -- the font size in the input window
is tiny, *far* smaller than my KDE default font, and so small as to cause
real eyestrain.  What's worst is it's not configurable within Kopete. 
This is making Kopete unusable for me.

Here's some info: I'm using Kopete 0.10 from KDE 3.4.0 "b" from SUSE
linux 9.3.  The resolution part of my xdpyinfo:

  screen #0:
  print screen:    no
  dimensions:    1280x800 pixels (445x278 millimeters)
  resolution:    73x73 dots per inch

My KDE font (as per Control Centre): Sans Serif 11
The "Base Font" setting in Kopete: Sans Serif 9

So, if everything is working, the Kopete *chat* window should currently
be using *smaller* text than my desktop icons, menu bars, etc.  But it's
actually larger, like about 13 point, which I find inconvenient and ugly.
But text in the Kopete *input* window is miniscule -- far too small to
read comfortably.

Now, I change the "Base Font" setting in Kopete to Sans Serif 11.  The
*chat* window text is now horribly huge.  But the *input* window hasn't
changed in the slightest -- it's still tiny.
