Description tops 2003-12-21 04:43:05 UTC
Version:           1.9.8 (using KDE KDE 3.1.4)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
Compiler:          3.3.3 gcc (GCC) 3.3.3 20031206 (prerelease) (Debian)
OS:          Linux

All i did was turn on anti-aliasing support in Kcontrol, and now for some reason all the pop up panels are huge. Here is a pic:

If i start kcontrol as root, the panels are normal size:

The panels barely even fit on the screen. I tried turning off anti-aliasing, but the panel stays the same humungous size.  The behaviour occurs on all applications now, not just kcontrol.

How to Reproduce: K > Control Panel > Appearance > Fonts > check on 'Use antialiasing for fonts' > Apply

Expected Behaviour: Panels of all the applications become really big.

It might have been a debian specific bug, and it seems like its gone on kde 3.2.3 for now.
