xorg + fluxbox -> huge fonts

I just upgraded to xorg and now I have huge fonts. It looks a bit like antialiasing is on but I can't figure out how to turn that off and see if it helps solving the fonts. It depends a bit on the themes but a theme I used with smallest fonts became huge already and I used a theme with a bit larger fonts so it really looks ugly now. Can anyone help me?

what font packages do you have installed?

if you don't have the xfonts-scalable and/or xfonts-75dpi sets, you might want to install them.

I have both installed.

In slackware and xfree86 I had it working ok, so it should be possible to somehow get that size down.

Just edited the theme. Taking it from font size 12 to 9 gave better looking fonts.
