How can I fix YAST's too small font size?

English Applications
#1

Hi,

I am running openSUSE 11.4 KDE 64bit. I found the default font in YAST, for example, in Bootloader and Software Management, is about 8-9 points which is too small to read. Why on earth does openSUSE set a tiny font size as default?

I did try Configure Desktop >Application Appearance, etc. as well as qtconfig in the terminal but these seem not to increase the font size to 12-14 points.

I would much appreciate your suggestion.

Run qtconfig as root


kdesu qtconfig

yast runs as root so it does not use the settings you made as a normal user,
since every user has its own settings.

The same goes for Personal Settings:

kdesu systemsettings

And then ‘Application Appearance’ > ‘Fonts’ or so
