    I only login as root for now.. Once I get a handle on things I will move
    over to a user..

    When I run gnome-control-center i see all the fonts are set to 16.. Yet
    when I go into Mozilla I still see some sites really tiny tiny.. and If
    I zoom it to 120% it looks ok.

    what else could I try?
