(Default) Text is too small. This can be easily seen even on the (SoaS) login screen.

Reported by: abhunkin Owned by: sdz
Priority: High Milestone: 0.86
Component: Sugar on a Stick (SoaS) Version: 0.84.x
Severity: Critical Keywords:
Cc: dfarning@…, abhunkin@… Distribution/OS: Unspecified
Bug Status: Resolved

Description

Text is too small. This can be easily seen even on the Soas login screen.
Text-based activities are particularly affected. Text that covers the entire
screen on the XO-1, covers only one-third of SoaS (upper left corner).
Text formatting in PyGTK (as with gtk.Label) must be completely redone for
SoaS.

Does this happen with all activities? Or only some are affected?

The affected text is all Sugar UI text, text in Logs and Terminal, for sure. As stated in other tickets, this also applies to SoaS on the XO-1.

In general, however, the problem seems to involve the video card used, because font size (in the above cases) vary widely *with the same monitor*, when different computers host SoaS. For example, I've at least one (PC) system which produces font sizes clearly *larger* than the default "size 10."
