Hi Vadim!
You use a 75x75dpi resolution on screen. This resolution is somewhere hacked 
in your qt-2.3.0 as a magic number.
My Xserver reads the correct screen resolulution from the monitor during 
start-up. It's 109x108dpi. If I forced X to use 75dpi I have the same "font 
presentation" like you, but is far too small for a 19'' monitor. (Than I had 
to use a standard fontsize of 16pt-18pt(!) - this would broke some 
GUI-elements) So using the real screen resolution is the only correct way.
What do your fonts look like, when you start your session with "startx -- 
-dpi 109"?

Bye

  Thorsten
