I'm running Gentoo (of course) with Blackbox as my WM. I got a |
| 2 |
digital camera several weeks ago, and am now playing around with |
| 3 |
2590 x 1920 sized images in Gimp. My monitor can't go quite *THAT* |
| 4 |
high, but 1600 x 1200 (for that matter 1560 x 1170) is large enough |
| 5 |
for Gimp to display its toolbox menu plus an image window at 50% |
| 6 |
(1280 x 960) without any overlapping. |

My only complaint is that I can barely see the fonts at that |
| 9 |
resolution. I normally run at 1152 x 864 on a 19" CRT. I'd prefer to |
| 10 |
switch my web-browsing, etc to 1560 x 1170, but I simply can't read |
| 11 |
the text. For the time-being, I've created a second user account for |
| 12 |
myself. waltdnes (my regular account) surfs the web at 1152 x 864 on |
| 13 |
display :0, and user2 (how original) works with Gimp at 1560 x 1170 on |
| 14 |
display :1. |

How do I boost font size across the board so I can surf the web, and |
| 17 |
do spreadsheets, etc without having to squint at higher resolutions ? |
