I installed a 3dfx voodoo 3 3000 video card last week, and ran xf86config to set it up. Did startx, it failed. DUH: didn't change the xserver from svga. I couldn't download the correct server because my isp was down. So, I reconfigured xf86config back to my original (matrox mystique) card and started X without a problem.
But I have a problem I can't find any clues on in the docs. All the menu items and text in netscape, gnumeric, icewm, gnome-panel, gnome-card etc are VERY large, almost like its a 640x480 resolution (I'm set to 1024x768). But, the fonts are fine in wordperfect, staroffice, are fine. I checked the FontPath in XF86Config, and the paths to the misc, 100dpi, and 75dpi fonts are correct and unscaled. The fonts are present in the directories shown in FontPath. Any suggested reading or clues would be appreciated. Thanks. M. Heyes
