Fixing fonts on KDE in Mandrake 8.0:
To switch from the default 75 DPI resolution,
* Edit etc/X11/xdm/Xservers
change the command line:
:0 local usr/X11R6/bin/X
to include "-dpi 100", as:
:0 local usr/X11R6/bin/X -dpi 100
(Keep any other options)
* In '/etc/X11/fs/config': switch the positions of these lines (as
'root'):
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled,
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled,
so it's:
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled,
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled,
* In KDE's Control Center: 'LookNFeel' - 'Fonts' change the setting for
'Fixed Fonts' from 'courier' to 'lucidatypewriter'
* Do the same in the 'WebBrowsing' - 'Konqueror Browser' - Appearance'
module.
