Hi all,

[A thread started by me in xorg mailing list on setting a 96x96 DPI:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.freedesktop.xorg/14115]

So far I haven't got any decent solution. Passing an argument to X or
adding a 'Monitor' section in xorg.conf seems backwards. Thus I think
it deserves to be fixed by autodetecting i.e. DPI should come out
correctly by system-config-display.

Could anyone run `xdpyinfo|grep resolution' to see if your DPI is set
correctly? Since gnome will adjust it to 96x96, you won't see any
difference no matter what value you get. But in other WMs, you will
see the difference for example, the font size could appear to be too
large or too small.

Mine is:
,----[ xdpyinfo|grep resolution ]
| resolution:    75x75 dots per inch
`----

Thanks.
