Dear Anthony, I also saw that suggestion on alt.os.slackware, and it's great - I've been using it. Hats off to the person who made the original suggestion. You can also expand on it a little bit just to make things more slick. For one thing, to avoid typing those parameters every time, you can make it into an alias (put in .bashrc file): alias startx='startx -- -dpi 110' If you (or any user on your system) finds that typing "startx" is too traumatic, you can get rid of gdm login (not a bad idea in itself) and put the "startx -- -dpi 110" command in your/their .bash_profile. regards, Robert -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
