    When I log in with GNOME environment, then I haven't problem, the
    characters are OK, but if I log in with Window Maker then a dialog box
    ask me whether I will use the GNOME settings, or the X Window settings.

    Then I select the X Windows settings, but get then the small
    characters.

    My question is in point of fact that that where should I setup more to
    get bigger characters not in GNOME but in X Window using windowmanager
    like Window Maker?
