I've only found this to effect firefox/thunderbird
applications, but it doesnt happen in all WM's. Ive
tested a few, xfce doesnt, twm does.

Firefox has huge fonts in the dialogs (not the
webpages). Its easily fixed via
edit>preferences>general>fonts>display resolution.
However you have to manually set it to w/e the
resolution is. firefox uses "system settings" by
default and this is miscalculated when you are on a
dual head system.

definately not vital problem in this case, but it may
have more serious implications in other arenas.

    Xft.dpi: X resource can be used to override this.
