Question XDM Prompt Size


HI there guys.

I'd like to know how can I change the default size of the xdm login prompt.
I was reading the configuration files and I see that I can change the font sixe of the greeting for example, but how can I change the whole size,
I'd like to make it moe big, height and width.

Thanx

Make a copy of /etc/X11/xdm/Xresources for safe keeping, then experiment with the geometry settings to see if that gives you what you want.
