I remember having this problem before, although everything fits fine on my
800x600 display now with Kondara 2000. Try playing with your .gtkrc or the
system default gtkrc. The one that comes with Kondara 2000 looks something
like this:

# $(datadir)/gtkrc.ja
#
# This file is needed for the Japanese users.
# The fonts are changed from the original gtkrc.
# And fontset is specified.

style "GnomeScores_CurrentPlayer_style"
{
  fg[NORMAL] = {1.0, 0.0, 0.0}
}

style "GnomeScores_Logo_style"
{
  fontset = "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
  fg[NORMAL] = {0.0, 0.0, 1.0}
}

style "GnomeAbout_DrawingArea_style"
{
  bg[NORMAL] = {1.0, 1.0, 1.0}
}

style "GnomeAbout_Title_style"
{
  fontset = "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
}

style "GnomeAbout_Copyright_style"
{
  fontset = "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
}

style "GnomeAbout_Author_style"
{
  fontset = "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
}

style "GnomeAbout_Names_style"
{
  fontset = "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
}

style "GnomeAbout_Comments_style"
{
  fontset = "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
}

style "GnomeHRef_Label_style"
{
  fg[NORMAL] = { 0.0, 0.0, 1.0 }
  fg[PRELIGHT] = { 0.0, 0.0, 1.0 }
  fg[INSENSITIVE] = { 0.5, 0.5, 1.0 }
  fg[ACTIVE] = { 1.0, 0.0, 0.0 }
}

style "GnomeGuru_PageTitle_style" 
{
  fontset = "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
}

Um, I dunno, but "Bigfoot" would be pretty appropriate....
