After upgrading to 12.04 my fonts are now huge. The only way I have found to solve it, is by running the following command after startup:

$ sudo gnome-settings-daemon 

** (process:3299): WARNING **: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files

(gnome-settings-daemon:3285): color-plugin-WARNING **: failed to reset xrandr-default gamma tables: gamma size is zero

Can somebody help solve this problem?

Update 2: I have the same problem in unity

Update 1: Attached screenshot:

Update 3 To follow up, I never found a solution and ended up reinstalling it all

Try to install gnome-tweak-tool via terminal:

sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool

Then start it with

gnome-tweak-tool

on terminal and go to font settings. Set the fonts to "Ubuntu" with font size "11" and for window titles "Ubuntu Bold".

By the way: What you describe should be a bug, but with this workaround you can get your fonts set to default.
