That's all true.  But, as discussed in my exchanges with Pam in this thread,
messing around with general font size caused the KDE Control Panel window to
size down appropriately.  I checked it using your suggestion of the
kcontrolrc file.

The K Control Module window (called from Settings/Configuration in
Konqueror) is also too big and won't resize using the mouse.  The
Apply/OK/cancel buttons for that window are below the bottom of the screen,
making the window useless.  So, when you made the suggestion, I hoped for an
rc file that saved window size for that window.

I use 800x600 resolution (in all regards) on an ATI Expert 98 (a Mach 64
with 8k RAM).  RH 7.1, KDE 2.1.1.
