I tried that already however this also seems to only change the "default" font, not headlines and such. I wonder if this might be an X11 configuration problem.

However, there really should be an option allowing me to globally change the default font-face. felix -- felix_eckhofer * [fli4l-/eis-team] * ICQ#_59008162 "Ein Betriebssystem sie zu knechten, sie alle zu finden, ins Dunkle zu treiben und ewig zu binden..."
