   Your server is scaling bitmaps fonts.  Your bitmap font entries
in the XF86Config file should be appended with "unscaled", eg.

   FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled"
   FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled"
   FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled"
   FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
   FontPath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo"


   to have it move on to rendering fonts from outlines when
the prerendered fonts don't exist, rather than rescaling the
prerendered fonts as it is doing now.  If you are using a
font server these are probably in /etc/X11/fs/config or thereabouts.


                        Mark.
