You probably got bitten by the "xinit starts X11 in 100 dpi" and/or "kdm starts X with 100 dpi". There are debconf info screens telling you that, btw. Depending on which method you use to start X11, edit /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc or some file in /etc/X11/kdm/ (i think it's Xserver_0) and remove the "-dpi 100" switch. -- Andreas Trottmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
