Appearance Panel: Changing fonts and resolution without effect

[Achim]

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

A few minutes ago (20.04.2011 at 04:00 pm GMT+1) i made an update. Now my fonts are very big again. I wanted to change it back to the old settings in Appearance. I change whatever i want it to - but it doesn't apply my settings. I went into deeper config to change the resolution. That doesn't work either.
Before i ran the update, everything worked fine for me.

I appear to have a similar issue. In Maverick x64 edition changing the font size in the Appearance changed the font size used in the Nautilus File manager. This no longer happens in Natty.

By default I always drop the default font size by a couple of points otherwise they are far too large.

That configuration dialog is deprecated in GNOME3 and Oneiric so closing the bug, feel free to open new bugs about other issues you might find though
