Description Martin Ludwig 2005-07-16 19:07:36 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
After upgrading libgtk2.0 to version 2.7.2 the size of the text (menu, in gnome
applications etc) is to large. It is no longer recognizing the dpi from the
gnome-control-center -> fonts -> details. In previous versions of libgtk
changing that setting changed the size of all text on the screen immediatly.

Steps to reproduce:
1. change the dpi-setting in gnome-control-center -> fonts -> details
2. 
3. 

Actual results:
the fontsize stays the same

Expected results:
fontsize should adjust to dpi-setting

Does this happen every time?
yes

Other information:
downgrading to the previous version solved the problem for me. Some additional
information to my system: laptop with 1400x1050 resolution on a 14inch screen,
so I have about 124 dpi. I'm running debian (testing/unstable) and tried the
packages  from experimental (libgtk2.0-0 and dependencies). I have set
DisplaySize in /etc/X11/xorg.conf accordingly.
