Font sizing issue in SuSE!!!
The following are two screen shots that I took. One with Appearance-> Font altered to all be size 20 font. The second being all fonts changed to size 14 font. If you notice the Kopete messenger does not change size from typed font to the window. If I change that font to a smaller font, they both get smaller, thus making it harder to even see what I'm typing. The second window you can notice is the Install window. That is the size that it always remains at. I can not get the damn thing to change to a larger font. I can't even read what anything says. I even tried putting in a bunch of repositories for YaST and I have apparently 223 updates available, but when I click update, I get an error message I can't even read.

resoultion and refresh rates are not configured properly. check your Monitor's Manual and note down supported VertiRefresh and HorizSync rates. boot up in Command line mode ( Select SuSe title in GRUB screen, press 3 and press Enter Key) and execute 'sax2'. enter correct refresh rates. execute 'startx' to check GUI and Fonts.

despite my reluctance to understand how the refresh rate would alter the problem with different programs utilizing different size fonts, I still tried your method. This did nothing for me. The fonts are still disproportioned across the programs I am using. Firefox is huge, while my login screen and install software windows, have text so tiny I can not even read them.
