[mythtv-users] font and screen size problem

[S. Martinez]

Ok, I am at my wits end here.  I appreciate the response.  I tried to 
figure out how to drop the database, and had no luck.  I then went as 
far as uninstalling mythtv and mysql, then re-install both and start 
over.  I am getting the same problem when I run mythtvsetup.  My whole 
desktop gets huge and I can't see any of the selections in mythtv.  If I 
logout and log back in to my X session, everything returns to normal.  
By the way, I am following the instructions for setting up mythtv from 
Jarod Wilson (the Fedora Myth How-to guy)'s website.

Also, there is a correction to my first post, I messed up while going 
through the settings from the mythtv frontend settings, not mythtvsetup.
