Font size problem....help !
« on: February 10, 2004, 05:44:20 PM »

Hi,

I run a Linux Debian (woody) system, with KDE.
I followed the instructions to add amule in apt config...and the install went like a dream : bravo ! If only all programs were so easy to install...

However I have a small problem with the font size amule uses.
I have a 1152*864 screen, and amule seems to have choosen a large font (at least 12) for all the displays. That's a bit too large....and the windows are pretty hard to read, as most names can't fit in the available space.

I didn't find how to explain amule to choose a smaller font (like the ones we see in the screenshots), and how it chooses it's default font size (so I could fix my problem)

Any ideas ?

Regards

I've got the same problem on Mandrake 10, Gnome, aMule 1.2.8.

What to do?

BTW, I'm new to Linux and aMule. Migrating from Win and eMule. So, please, don't kill me... ;(

AFAIK, the following command works only with Debian:
Code: [Select]
apt-get install xfonts-75dpi-transcoded xfonts-100dpi-transcoded In Mandrake instead of "apt-get" is used "rpmi" or "urpmi". But when I run those commands, I get
error: open of xfonts-75dpi-transcoded failed: No such file or directory
and
no package named xfonts-75dpi-transcoded.

So, where from could I get those packages?
