A friend running Gentoo upgraded monitors from 15" to 17": Alex set up my machine in Linux and all was fine until [someone else] tried to make my life better by replacing my perfectly good 15 inch monitor with a 17 inch one. Now everything is so tiny I can't read it and most of the screen is blank. No one seems to know how to fix this. Is there an easy way to make things bigger? This is Gentoo. Any help would be appreciated. Strangely enough, when the computer boots up the print is fine but once you go into e-mail (thunderbird) or internet (firefox) everything gets small. I've never used Gentoo (and I don't use Gnome or KDE). What can I tell her? -- | Ian! D.
