The above explanation makes sense to me and made it clearer. From my point of
view this can be simply moved upstream, as a request to read user's font setup
as soon as possible to let work application properly. For example, when I have
xchat run at session startup, and it run before the setup is applied, then this
app badly counts link position, together with selection highlighting (it counts
with bigger fonts, but text before selection is smaller one). I can simply do
Settings->Preferences and OK there and everything works just fine. Maybe it's
only xchat issue, but I noticed it there mostly, apart of that keyboard message.
Thanks again for your explanation and feel free to move upstream.

> Huh, shouldn't all font packages be named something-fonts or fonts-something?

> -cjkunifonts-uming
> -baekmuk-ttf-fonts-gulim
They are subpackage of sazanami-fonts, cjkunifonts, and baekmuk-ttf-fonts.
There are plenty of other older examples of subpackages in the distro:
bitmap-fonts-cjk
dejavu-fonts-experimental
tetex-fonts-hebrew
xorg-x11-fonts-*

Yes, the xrandr multihead drivers are terrible at DPI determination. When I
docked at the office this morning, everything was back to its broken state. I'll
open a new bug against that component for this issue.

Yep, I forgot to write some of the new randr multihead drivers are very bad at
this stuff, and can cause xorg dpi misconfiguration (to report to the Fedora
xorg maintainers if you manage to define a reproduceable "X is confused about
screen dpi" scenarii)

I re-did my xorg.conf to a default, then blew away all the .gconf preferences.
It seems to have fixed all my problems. This must have been caused by my second
monitor, which was present at initial setup. The second monitor was being
detected by s-c-d as the primary monitor, so I'm sure the settings were all
screwy once I went single monitor at home (different resolution and size LCD
panels).

> I'm seeing the same problems with tiny fonts a moment after login,
This is just GNOME lazy-reading GConf preferences and drawing text before
noticing the user font preferences are not the same as the system font
preferences. You can verify it by creating a new user (that will have every
parameter reset to defaults) and test if the text size switch occurs.
If that is the case you can open a bug @upstream GNOME (gnome-session) to ask it
reads font preferences before drawing text (not after). But that's an old
problem I've also seen in pre-F8 releases.

Please open separate bugs for separate problems thanks
