That did it  :-)

I added this line to my Rox-Session AppRun file, just after the _USE_XFT
settings and I now have fonts at the correct sizes (well, I used 96 dpi, which
is the value I beleive Gnome uses, but the point's the same!)

Does anyone know where Rox-Session takes its default dpi setting from? It's
obviously not the Gnome one...

But I rather like a graphical login...

Is there any way to stop Rox starting its own XSettings manager? And would
there be a problem doing this (given that I have another running anyway)?
