You can use "xdpyinfo | grep resolution" to see what dpi X is using. You can control dpi with the X -dpi option or the DisplaySize in xorg.conf. > > Zac I once had this exact problem.

I found that switching off my monitor, turning it back on, and restarting X (ctrl-alt-backspace) often would solve the problem. It turned out to be a problem of DCC (detecting screen size or something). Back then I had a creative geforce2 gts and a sony 19" crt I used drivers from nvidia and found there was an option to disable DCC (NoDCC i think). It solved my problems. Dont know what drivers/graphicscard you are using but perhaps you could do something similiar? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
