I had this problem earlier after I installed and ran Ximian's evolution.
The fonts became gigantic in Mozilla and the form layout on webpages
became screwed up in both galeon and mozilla, but not konqueror.

I'm not sure how this problem resolved itself; I recall switching to
konqueror for a few days and when I tried mozilla again (perhaps after
apt-upgrading) the fonts were back to normal. However, I just now tried
running evolution again and the font problem is back. Restarting X didnt'
seem to help.

I am also running Debian woody, w/enlightenment. Hope this info helps
some.

PS: Does anyone know how to configure tinting in the Eterm
configuration file? I'm trying to configure Eterm so that each
terminal is tinted with a random color when Eterm is invoked.
I know Eterm can be run with the --tint <color> option, and I know
how to use the %random() function, but does anyone know how tinting
is stipulated in the Eterm user.cfg file?

Thanks

Tyler
