Customized font height not restored upon starting emacs

Customized font height not restored upon starting emacs

[rcopley]

Good morning,

I have used customize-face to set the font family and height for the 
default face. When I begin a new emacs session, the font family I chose 
is displayed, but in a different size. I know ~/.emacs is being executed 
because my keyboard shortcuts are all still working. If I use C-x C-e to 
run the custom-set-face defun in ~/.emacs, the correct font-size is 
restored.

So I adopted the working hypothesis that emacs, X or my window manager 
is applying some other customization after ~/.emacs is parsed.

I've trawled through all the configuration files I could find, namely
	~/.emacs,
	/etc/emacs/site-start.el,
	/etc/X11/app-defaults/Emacs,
	/etc/X11/Xresources,
	/etc/X11/XF86Config,
	~/.kde/share/applnk-mdk/Applications/Editors/Emacs.desktop,
	/usr/share/apps/kappfinder/apps/Editors/emacs.desktop, and
	/usr/share/apps/kdisplay/app-defaults/Emacs.ad,
and removed every font-related command and every string of font settings 
(don't worry, I made backups). This was to no avail.

I'm running GNU Emacs 21.2.93.1, in X, and I'm using IceWM as my window 
manager (is that terribly gauche of me? I only started using GNU/Linux a 
week or so ago). The theme I'm using in IceWM is Breaker51.

Do you have a solution or suggestion?

I'm using set-default-font instead now. Cheers!
