I installed the nvidia drivers from the one-click install. It’s made all the system fonts too small, on the desktop, firefox, and everywhere else. How do I increase the system font size? Thanks.
You go (assuming KDE 4.x) into the start menu (the lizard) and there preferred programs. You will find an entry “system settings”. There you go in the submenu (I belief it is “appearance” and you change the size (of if you wish you force the DPI) Fonts are the choice if the reason for the font size is not the monitor pixel resolution. If this should be the case it could be an option to select a higher DPI setting (120%) or slightly less to see how is the readability. You may have to log off as user and on again (no reboot required) to the the result to a full extend.
Gentleman, I do not know why lord_valerian started his thread here, nor why stakanov answered here, both in English, in the Dutch part of the forums. It escapes me completely how you venture here either by:
. not knowing Dutch, but nevertheless fopllowing the Forums - subforums tree down to here without ever asking yourself “why can’t I understand the subjects here?”;
. or knowing Dutch and thus understanding where you went, but then posting in English (in the hope nobody understands you?).
Please understand that the languae parts of the forums are made to serve people in that particular lnguage and thus please do not post in Chinese in the Japanese forums or any other combination that is available here.
I will move this to Hardware in the english part.

and, i have nothing to add…
Maybe I am a nitwit with NTTP, but I thought you had a problem when threads were removed from you. But as I thought you wouldn’t watch the Dutch forums, I thought I could move it to your English watching whatever. Thus creating a new thread in th English Hardware forums, new to everybody.using the WWW or whatever.
I will not move anymore.

no, don’t stop helping…let me try to explain:
actually, i am now sorry i mentioned it…
the thing is, when you moved from the Dutch forum to the English forum,
the only thing that appeared in the english nntp ‘forum’ was your note
saying you were going to move it…
i do not know why the machinery can’t mirror the entire thread to the
nntp gateway as it arrives in a new location, but it does not…
oldcpu has been quoting the relevant points of the existing thread as he
moves and announces the move…so i was thinking out loud: it would be
nice if all the mods used the same procedures when moving threads…
but, there seems to be no push to have a standard operating procedure
for routine actions…

for routine actions…
There is one, but I thought that it wouldn’t be applicable for the reasons I mentioned above.
As the standard procedure requires to do actions with half an hour in between the steps and as my memory is to old to ring me up after half an hour (if a m not away doing things somewhere else in the meantime), I decided no to move anymore. This was an exception because I thought it wouldn’t harm you.
On the website it is simply a new thread and my RSS feeds tells me the same. I do not know why NNTP can’t cover that. But again, I am an NNTP nitwit.

Sorry Henk. The thins is I arrived to the post from “new postings” and on a 12" machine. So I did simply not check the forum localization, believing the O.P. did post correctly - and did answer. Het spijt me. This was not done because I did not respect the language specific forum. 
I couldn’t find that, but I found personal settings. Then searched for font and resolution. The fonts were set at nine pt. I reset them to 12 pt. Everything is readable again. Thanks.
