But unfortunately the fonts grew a lot, there would any way to keep the size that I used to on 8.16.20-1.I experience the same problem with a Mobility Radeon 9600 M10 on an Intel Centrino machine running a 2.6.13.4 vanilla kernel: fglrxinfo, glxgears and fgl_glxgears work perfectly, but the font size increased very much. I thought it was an EDID problem, since /var/log/XFree86.0.log showed up some EDID info (while using driver 8.16.20 no EDID info are retrieved), but I didn't go over this point.
It's quite possibly indirectly related to that, because if the EDID is
available, the X server will derive the DPI from it instead of using the
standard value of 75. There are several possibilities for overriding the
DPI:
* Some apps (Firefox, GNOME, ...) can use a fixed DPI instead of
the one provided by the X server. Look for a font configuration
entry called something along the lines of 'screen resolution'.
* Using the X server -dpi command line switch.
* Indirectly via using the DisplaySize directive in the X server
config file (DPI = Resolution in pixels / size).
Hope this helps,
