desktop font


got slackware 10 installed and also a dark wallpaper. as the default desktop font colour is black can't see none of the desktop icon descriptions. in slackware 9.1 you could right-click on the desktop and change the font colour and type, but in slackware 10 there is no such option to change the desktop font.

if anybody knows how to change the desktop font colour in slack 10 please tell me how its done...

thanks in advance...

It amazes me the way that two kindred spirits can find one another in the fog.

Just out of curiosity, what desktop environment/window manager are you using? KDE? Gnome? Other?

Enjoy!
