Newbie with huge font problems! ;-)

Also, you can change the resolution on the Pi in "Preferences/Raspberry Pi Configuration.
Key commands while the mirror is running:
zoom in = Ctrl + Shift + =
zoom out = Ctrl + -
default size = Ctrl + 0 (that’s a zero) -
@cowboysdude - i’m running the css from github.
@mykle1 - i thought this couldnt be the native resolution of the pi as the desktop displays correctly. using ctrl + - i can zoom out to a usable scale THANK YOU. however this seems a bit of a fiddle/workaround as if i stop the mm the desktop is now tiny. I think this will work, but i’d love to know whats different in my set up to other’s
cheers

That could take you a very long time. There are very few setups that are exactly alike and it’s impossible to know what each user has changed or done differently. You might want to consider a fresh installation of Raspian Jessie and MM without deviating from the tutorial here. At the very least, a fresh install of MM, which doesn’t take very long. Get a default install up and running. If the issue persists, then it’s likely hardware related

@cowboysdude - not ignoring anything, i’m grateful for the help and said thanks. i tried your suggestion and downloaded the css, its exactly the same as the original version, so made no difference. thats not ignoring you.
@mykle - i’m running on a pi 2 with a newly formatted sd card with raspian stretch. the only think i’ve downloaded and installed has been following the tutorials here. hence my pondering on the differences as it doesnt sound like others have a similar issue. i have a pi zero kicking around, i might try it on there too see if i can replicate

You might want to consider Jessie as opposed to Stretch. I had troubles with Stretch myself.

The install on a Pi zero is different. There’s a bunch of threads relating to that.
