  If you look at my message of the 17th, you'll see...

->  DisplaySize 328 246
->
->  Which is a bit of a lie.  I have a 19" (diaganal) CRT monitor.

  I thought that the fonts were too small on a 19" monitor.  I told X
that I have a smaller monitor than I really do.  X compensated for the
"small monitor" by increasing the font size to something that it thinks
looks half decent on a 17" CRT.  On a 19" CRT it's actually OK.
