 Hi,

 as Jody reported the font size on the startup screen and in QGIS can go
 nuts.

 check current X.org auto-detect res with:
 {{{
 xdpyinfo | grep -B1 -A1 resolution
 }}}

 edit
 ~/.config/xfce4/Xft.xrdb
  or
 /etc/xdg/xfce4/Xft.xrdb

 and add following line somewhere at the end:
 Xft.dpi: 96

 (you need to edit the /etc/ file as root, so sudo the editor)

 then log out, and log back in.
