Comment 56 for bug 118745

Sebastien, I'm not sure but I think the libgnome changes may be the reason for a massive surge of reports about fonts becoming too small to read and gnome-appearances-properties crashing, summed up by bug #140540 and all its duplicates. I found the problem and a fix and posted the details there, but a patch will need to be released once the root cause is found.

Summary: After the updates (which I thought might be caused by changes in gnome-control-center & capplets-data) gconf is showing /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/dpi = 50 rather than 96.

Could you check on this?
