X Fonts are too big
I don't know if this has happened to y'all. Anyway...
My XServer is running fine. I have a NVidia Riva TNT 2 video card, with
a LG monitor. The only thing is that the fonts for some programs are too
big. Gimp, for example, is working with a very big font. Netscape is
also. The problem with the latter is that with such big fonts in the
window, it occupies lots of space in the screen. It bothers me.
The other problem I'm having with X debs of potato (which seems to be
3.3.6) is that normal X Fonts (such as Utopia and Helvetica) are all
strange and badly drawn. I'm running a True Type font server (xfstt) and
True Type fonts are just fine.
What seems to be the problem? I looked for the documentation in
xfree86.org and they are not mentioning anything wrong with fonts in
such X Server. If anyone ever had this trouble, what am I doing of wrong
here? I've installed all the fonts (100dpi, 75dpi, Speedo, Type1 and
TrueType).
Best Regards,
