Suggestions on X11 tweaking (OpenSUSE 11)

Hi,

I've grown tired of X11 not working in parallels, thus I'd like to do some tinkering. I installed OpenSuSE 11, which leads to X restarting shortly after login if Parallels Tools are installed. This can be addressed by setting color depth to 16 bit in xorg.conf:

Set session type to "failsafe" (german: abgesichert), then log in, type "sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf", type your password, type "/24", type "i", then set DefaultDepth to 16. Type esc, :wq, exit. Reset session type, log in again.

My experience at this stage is that all while KDE starts up fine and everything seems to work, fonts do shrink to about 2 pt. This is not exactly comfortable to read, so I'd be happy to read your suggestions on how to fix this.

Turns out that I needed to manually set the dpi in KDE's System Preferences. After doing that, fonts look normal.
 
I just installed KDE4 and have the same small font issues after I installed PTools. How do you manually set the dpi in KDE4?
