Actually I should have said more... I am running Mandrake
6.0 w/kernel 2.2.13 and KDE 1.1.1 using netscape 4.7
While on the web with KDE's KFM browser, all fonts seem to
be working fine... so... also I checked my XF86Config file
and saw that it's not thru the standard font server where I
can change the dpi like mentioned in the deuglification mini
howto...
I figure there is some reading I have to do on Netscape
configs...
TIA
