 It is a natural reaction to our screen being a bit special. On earlier
 OSs we've scaled up the 'zoom' for the xulrunner (gecko) engine;
 effectively scaling the whole page to 134%.
I'd like to share my experience that I also tried several ways to
adjust the font size, ex. change propotional/mono space font size, fix
to 96 dpi... they only work partially. The most effective one is to
enlarge the minimum font size which César mentioned. Is there some
documentation about what has been done on xulrunner for the Browse
activity? This would be beneficial for other potential browsers to use
on XO. I was trying Chrome but the current RPM provided needs bunches
of dependencies. Yum crashed during the installation. (post install
failed due to OOM)

BTW, re-size the image size largely degraded the rendering
performance. Though the current quality suggests the most efficient
algorithm used already. (very poor quality)

Thank you very much. This is very useful.

Also, there's an issue on the javascript engine of Midori, it breaks
on some sites like google reader. I read about this on the Midori bug
tracking when googling and there's already some fix for it. (haven't
tried myself) Would XO F11 include the fix some time or just wait for
the new distribution builds?

 Also, beware that the problem might not appear on a different screen
 than th XO's. So by fixing this bug for the XO screen, you might be
 introducing it (i.e. too small fonts) for other screens.

I think it'd be good to add it in the kickstart that builds the image.

 If you want to report this issue, bugzilla would be the place to go.

Don't think this is an upstream issue, unless you also find it on a non-xo.

 Hello All,
 
 In the FC-11, The Midore Browser comes as the default browser. It looks
 good so far, but it has a little bug, well it is not a proper bug, the
 font-size is too big displaying messages.

s/Midore/Midori/g :-)

When I said messages before, I meant error messages. In order to
reproduce it, just open a non valid URL.

 I'm not wrong, who is takes care of Midore (or perhaps Gnome) packaging?
 
 Even though Sugar is our target desktop we want everything to (sort of)
 work if some kid chooses to try out Gnome.

Oh! Does the same happen with other error messages from other apps? If
so, we might need to bump gnome's font sizes.

If not, then perhaps the bug is that Midori isn't using Gnome's
configured font sizes ;-)

cheers,
