 Replying to [ticket:1146 abhunkin]:
 > Text is too small. This can be easily seen even on the Soas login
 screen.
 > Text-based activities are particularly affected. Text that covers the
 entire

 > Text formatting in PyGTK (as with gtk.Label) must be completely redone
 for
 > SoaS.

 The affected text is all Sugar UI text, text in Logs and Terminal, for
 sure. As stated in other tickets, this also applies to SoaS on the XO-1.

 In general, however, the problem seems to involve the video card used,
 because font size (in the above cases) vary widely *with the same
 monitor*, when different computers host SoaS. For example, I've at least
 one (PC) system which produces font sizes clearly *larger* than the
 default "size 10."
