Use Xfce Menu -> Settings -> Appearance -> Fonts Doesn't work. That is, it works, and I have already done that a long time ago. But I need to change the font settings for X *before Xfce starts up*. There is a tool 'xfontsel,' but it pops up a GUI window on the desktop with a font that is 1mm high, and I can't read most of it, even with a magnifying glass. There is a man page for it, but it didn't illuminate much. I was hoping for direct commands, like 'setxfontsize=' and 'makexfontsizesetting=forever' or such. In my research so far about all I have learned is that apparently X sets font size by number of pixels, not point size that we are ordinarily accustomed to. Considering that the Xfce login window is also half the size that it needs to be, or less, with the same tiny font, it occurs to me that the entire X system is one quarter the size I need it to be (3840x2160 = 4x as many pixels as 1920x1080). X seems to be stuck with settings from the last millennium. Hopefully I can fix it. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
