You can see how the font size can change from one person to another.. and
no, all their other applications were fine (so no dpi problem or whatever it

And from this forum thread :
http://www.amsn-project.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4202
"Changed from Xinerama to TwinView, and all works great. Thanks to nvidia
drivers I suppose."
so maybe the problem is elsewhere... it may be dependent on the drivers...
I don't know! How could we solve that?
