You didn't specify how you are starting X (startx, kdm, gdm, ...). Until
etch the dpi was forced to 96 in gdm/kdm. To set the correct dpi you
need to tell your X server the dimensions of your screen. In
/etc/X11/xorg.conf put in the Monitor section
Display <width> <height>
where <width> and <height> are the physical dimensions in mm of the
picture area of your monitor.
