Did you try to run the X server with a higher point size? Try startx -- -dpi 100 or startx -- -dpi 120 if that's still too small. That makes the fonts larger on the screen while it's still e.g. Helvetica 12 pt. -- Malte Starostik PGP: 1024D/D2F3C787 [C138 2121 FAF3 410A 1C2A 27CD 5431 7745 D2F3 C787] ------------------------------------------------------- -- Malte Starostik PGP: 1024D/D2F3C787 [C138 2121 FAF3 410A 1C2A 27CD 5431 7745 D2F3 C787] > Compiler:
