For years I used Ubuntu 9.04, great system, then bought a new Brother Laser printer, could not get connected to it, turned the computer over to a repair tech who worked for over 2 hours with no luck. Drivers would not load. Tech installed Xubuntu (I had never heard of it), connected to the printer, gave me back the computer. Not happy with the screen. Plain blue background with a mountain of tiny icons that are essentially unreadable. No idea what they are. Click on one and I get a tiny, abbreviated title. Have to go thru several to find what I need. How do I make a more usable user friendly screen out of this mess??? Thanks JJ <fieldset class="mimeAttachmentHeader"></fieldset> </blockquote> Make desktop fonts/icons bigger by right clicking on the desktop, choosing Desktop Settings, go into the 'Icons' tab and adjust the size. To change fonts of other things, go into Main Menu>Settings>Settings Manager>Appearance, and change font settings under the 'Fonts' tab. The 'Window Manger' settings dialog in the xfce settings manager can be used to set window title fonts. Joshua </body> </html>
