You are right.  Changing hinting to medium resolved the 
problem.  Why don't SUSE people fix this, it can't be that 
difficult?
The strange is when I set hinting to none it's still not the same 
as when I set it to (non working) full.

You are also right here. I had an "Xft.dpi:	75" line in /etc/
X11/Xresources that I added earlier according to one of your 
links and I forgot about.

Thanks again,
