How do you change the fonts in Linux, as far as IDLE interpreter for Python, everytime I open the interpreter window, the text is tiny, and it isn in a wierd font. I tried changing it under "Mandrake Control Center", by the way I am running Mandrake 8.0. Also, I used to have my system dual boot Mandrake and Windows 98, I did this using "Boot Magic" It worked fine when it booted I could choose either Windows 98 or Linux. I reformated my hard drive ,and reinstalled everything. I installed Windows first, then I installed "Boot Magic", when I installed Linux on a different partition on the same hard drive (same setup as I used to have) the bootloader LILO didnt get installed in the correct directory (I'm assumming) I think I need it in the Root directory and not in the MBR. I think it gave me the option of where to install LILO the first time that I installed it. I must have hit a different setting option the second time that I installed it, because I don't remember getting that same option. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am a Linux newbie, that would like to learn as much as I can about Linux, and Linux programming.
