A few weeks ago I sent out an email to this list, with the question:
> Please, how can I change the font and size of the fixed font? To be more specific, I really needed to change the fixed font used by GNOME 1 applications such as Evolution. I could barely read the one they were using. No one ever gave me any advice. I did solve the problem, in a very hackish way. I installed the old GNOME 1 control panel! Then I changed the fonts in the "HTML Viewer" applet. Then I re-installed the current GNOME control panel. I got a copy of the old gnomecc .deb file from /var/cache/apt/archives, and then installed it using: dpkg --force-conflicts -i gnome-control-center_1%3a1.4.0.5-6_i386.deb Then when I was done I simply updated all my packages, as usual, and the control center updated automatically. I look forward to the day when the GNOME 2 control panel can be used to change the fixed font. Until then, I'm keeping a copy of the old .deb file tucked away, in case I need to do this hack again. -- Steve R. Hastings "Vita est" [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.blarg.net/~steveha
