You have two options: (1) restore "-dpi 100" in Xservers, so that
you'll have the same as you had before upgrading [note that you'll
have to change back your KDE fonts]; (2) stay in 75, 75 (which is
what XFree detects is appropiate for your card, I think/it seems)
and change/tweak *once* the font-size for GTK apps, just as you did
in KDE.
