Bug Description

I'm using Ubuntu Breezy Badger Colony 3.

When using a large application font (such as Bitstream Vera Sans Roman, 20) the
text labels do not scale large enough to accomodate the size of the characters.

Right, that looks indeed ugly. Adding a screenshot for upstream.

hal-device-manager does not respect the current application font size
in the labels in the "Device" tab. All other UI elements scale
accordingly, though.
