Hi jansenj,
Thanks for the reply.  The 40-point font problem is one of my own
making -- I changed the default font for my account so that, when I
hook up a keyboard & mouse and use the TV as a monitor, I can sit on
the sofa and be able to read things.  There might be a way to
configure the font size dynamically based on the display (:0 vs :1) or
an environment variable, or some such.  For now, logging in as a
different user does the trick.
