+I always login to kde/gnome/etc., as root, at least once after a new
+install, to configure the fonts and other appearance settings, so
+that when I run &quot;su -&quot;, and then kdiff3 or similar, it uses the font
+size I want.
+
+Rather then trying to login via the dm though, I just use Alt+ctrl+f2,
+then login as root and use &quot;startx -- :1&quot;.
