Log:
Added a note about the Chinese font size bug. The stated monitor
requirements are in fact not accruate, since a font must be specially
designed for 12px Chinese glyphs to be clearly visible. We don't have
such fonts on the CD, thus 13px seems a more reasonable figure, and
monitor requirements are even more strict (1280x1024 for 15" and so on).

This can be fixed by increasng the default GTK font size to 10pt or 10.5pt
in XFCE settings.

If anyone has a 1600x1200 19" LCD display, please reply.

+Use of this LiveCD with Chinese, Japanese or Korean language requires that
+your monitor has at least 96 pixels per inch in order for hieroglyphs to
+be recognizable (i.e., at least 12 pixels high). This means the following
+minimum resolution:
+
+    15" => 1152x864
+    17" => 1280x1024
+    19" => 1400x1050
+    20" => 1600x1200
+
+If your monitor cannot handle such resolution, edit the
+/etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc file with vim, nano or joe, and add the -dpi 96
+parameter to the X server command line there.
