I'm running 1280x1024 with KDE on a Mandrake9.1 distro. The font sizes in eroaster are quite small at this resolution, is there a way to increase the sizes or are they hardcoded in the app? I've searched and searched in gnome but cannot find a way of doing it that is successful. This is not the only gtk app that seems to have this problem.
Sure would appreciate a fix if there is one.

I'm guessing I have something missing in the gnome area then because I used the gnome-control-center and set the application fonts to a size of 22 (huge) everything on the system is excessively large except for eroaster. It didn't change them at all. So I set ALL fonts to that large a font and still no change. I guess thats why I prefer KDE. Things just seem to work with it. I might add that the fonts within Arson did not change either so I'm pretty sure its my gnome setup, but what I have no idea nor where to start looking. :(

Which versions of GNOME and ERoaster do you use ? If you have GNOME2 and ERoaster 2.0.* (which is based on GNOME1), you can modify your .gtkrc file and add something like:
Mandrake's gnome 2.2 and eroaster 2.1.0. Hmmm, .gtkrc file, I have 4 different ones in my home directory, .gtkrc, .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2, .gtkrc-2.0 and .gtkrc-kde. The only one that is not auto written and says nothing about not editing is .gtkrc-kde and I added your lines to it and still nothing.
I'm wondering now if the problem might not be Mandrake caused? and their adoption of gnome2?

ERoaster uses the default GNOME settings. To adjust these, use the gnome-control-center.

Well 2 more hints. First, try to modify the ".gtkrc" file, even if it's auto generated. Second, upgrade to 2.2.0-0.3, which is GNOME2 based.
