Hello, I'm using Debian and had a similar problem a while ago. If I remember correctly, it happened because I was doing "startx -- :1" instead of the normal startx. When doing that, I got really small fonts in gtk2 apps. I figured out why it was happening (can't remember now, though) and found that I needed to set my dpi to 100. I now use "startx -- :1 -dpi 100". So, if you're launching X in a non-standard way, you may want to give this a shot. Ben
