This doesn't seem to work in F10. I remember seeing other posts on it,
and the consensus was th at a lot of the configurability has been disabled,
including the ability to control the font size (which on my eeepc is HUGE
on the small screen).

Allegedly, replacing it with the one from F9 solves the proglem, though
I haven't tried that.
