HI!

When I go to the er user management in KDE systemsettings I have to authenticate as sudo user.
Now the user management starts but doesn't use the system fonts. It rather uses very small defaults which I can't read (way too small for my eyes - I am having some vision impairments).

I tried to set the fonts in systemsettings as sudo user ("sudo systemsettings") but no effect at all.

Any help?

thx for reading,
piedro

Can you please provide a screenshot of this, as well as the user authentication dialog?

You cannot just run "sudo systemsettings" w/e exporting some stuff to the sudo session - you need to run "kdesu systemsettings", resp. "kdesu kcmshell4 fonts" to access the font dialog directly (you can also use kdesudo if that is installed)

THank you!

that solved the problem ... btw: also the problem of wrong fonts in some gnome apps started as sudo!

thx a lot,
piedro
