Comment 5 for bug 391190

Mirco, to make the notification bubble text fit with the text in the rest of Gnome, Notify OSD needs to use the same DPI value as the rest of Gnome. Currently Gnome is hard-coded to 96 dpi, though that is likely to change to the Xorg-supplied value during Karmic. Notify OSD needs to keep in sync with that calculation, i.e. hard-code 96 dpi whenever Gnome is doing so. Until you do that, neither of the font size choices -- 1.0✕ and 0.8✕, or 1.2✕ and 1.0✕ -- will match up with the rest of Ubuntu.
