Font Scaling Question

Hi all,
I have 2 computers, both Athlon XP, both Radeon, both 17" Trinitron
monitors (Sony G200 and Dell D1025TM), with identical X Configs except
that one is set for a higher refresh rate, sync, etc.- the main computer
is Radeon 8500 with 1600x1200 at 75hz, the 2nd is Radeon LE with
1600x1200 at 60hz.
And I have virtually identical Gentoo installs on both- the 2nd was set
up yesterday by copying the contents of the 1st hard disk to it via NFS.
Yet fonts in these basically identical setups are totally different
size-wise.
The main system has 10-pt. defaults, anti-aliasing enabled. So those
settings got copied over as well, but on the 2nd system 10-pt. is almost
double the size that it is on the 1st system.
Attached is the XF86Config from machine 2. Any ideas on what I might
try to get the 2nd machine displaying fonts correctly?
