Apparently it isn't. I will. I found the problem after upgrading from etch to lenny, actually with xdm. There's no way I'm going to read the NEWS files for 1000 packets when upgrading from etch to lenny; I think you'll understand. I can't include a log since xdm does not log any more to /var/log/xdm.log. Another problem. The font size thing will affect many people upgrading, so a better solution during upgrade should be found. Perhaps many ATI driver users will be affected? (I really hate that graphics card). *** It cost me some time to identify the problem, since after login everything looked well, initially, and checking the fonts in /etc/X11/xdm/Xresources didn't help, as they were displayed correctly in xfontsel. Only after I found that firefox was also affected, I got on the right track. It's solved for me, but something should be done to help others.
