From what I can tell from Google, avidemux comes in both GTK+ (2.x?) and Qt flavours. If you got it from deb-multimedia it's probably qt4, so you'll probably need to figure out how to set the fonts with something like qt4-qtconfig?
Hi Sven, I never use deb-multimedia, as it is strongly disadvised by the debian team. I took it from http://www.fosshub.com/Avidemux.html/ and installed the qt4 flavour. You were perfectly right: the problem was easily solved with qtconfig-qt4. The font settings was "sans serif/9" for all users but me, and "sans serif/14" for me. I have no idea where this setting comes from (I swear it's not me!) May-be a side effect of an other program... Changing it to "arial/12" fixed the avidemux issue.
At least that's my be best guess, I always reserve the right to be totally and utterly wrong ;)
Actually, you were totally and utterly right! Thanks a lot for your useful help. cheers, -- Pierre Frenkiel
