try: cat "exec windowmaker" > ~/.xsession chmod +x ~/.xsession Also to play around with the dpi to see if that is the problem you can run startx -- -dpi 100 If all this solves the problem then we can go back to gdm and see what its doing wrong. You could also try starting X through gdm and through kdm and each time do a ps ax after startup and see if there is a difference in the running programs, could be kdm is starting some server in the background (I know evolution had really ugly fonts for me until I found out I had to start gnome-settings-daemon). > Thanks for your help so far! > > Cheers - Piers > > Micha Feigin wrote: > >I don't think its gdm that setting your fonts, but to test it out you > >can stop gdm (/etc/init.d.gdm stop) and try running X using startx and > >see if you still have the problem. > > > >I believe its windowmaker settings. > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
