I don't know if it's a bug in GNOME but it's still a bug in Ubuntu! I
just installed 12.04 nightly and I cannot find ANY way to fix the DPI.
It's currently set to 96 instead of 110 on my test machine, and
apparently there is no option anywhere to fix it, in spite of it being
correctly detected (as

Confirming on lucid, I have the same issue as comment #19
My issue is the following: I switch several times per day between a
laptop (131 dpi) and external monitor (92 dpi), and I want GNOME to
recognize the switch, keeping the physical font size. Doing
gconftool-2 --unset /desktop/gnome/font_ren
I hope you will revert this change as soon as possible for Jaunty+1 in
order to give developers plenty of time to make sure their apps render
properly at native DPIs. It's really disappointing that this fix will
not make it into Jaunty because of this.

It seems broken again on current Jaunty.
Steps to reproduce:
Xorg gets DPI from EDID:
(--) NVIDIA(0): DPI set to (85, 86); computed from "UseEdidDpi" X config
(--) NVIDIA(0): option
Appearances shows 96 DPI. Setting it to 96 keeps the default size,
setting it to 86 makes the fonts smaller.
It seems that since Jaunty Beta, this is ignored again and there is a
default of 96 DPI (at least for both nv and nvidia) set in gconf for
LiveCD and Install.
"gconftool-2 --unset /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/dpi" will remove this
default value and subsequently, X-based auto-fontsize works - thou
I have a question. My monitor is 1440x900 and the dpi value which gnome uses is
121. With this DPI fonts are really gigantic!
Is this ok for my monitor? Or gnome picked up the wrong value?

As long as it sets the default, then I would agree this is fixed, since
it will force developers to re-scale the fonts on their apps to look
right. I see no reason not to let users override it if they want. I

I'd be happy with just removing the workaround, and filing new bugs for
anything that doesn't work ideally with the detected DPI, either an
application making an incorrect assumption, or a detection failure.

The whole situation could be compared to the bash->dash transition.

Either we do the transition or we wait until 2050 when all displays

What kind of device do you have? Sounds amazing! In any case, I was
only repeating the proposed solution of the GNOME developers. If there
is a better solution, such as a user dialogue or something, that would
be great. I doubt you'll want to run Ubuntu on a .75" display in any
case, as you sur
I have a 0.75" 800x600 display, where dpi is very definitely > 300.
Excluding values as nonsensical isn't the right way to do it either.
Still, I think "wontfix" is the correct value for this bug: it's not
going to be fixed in Ubuntu. If GNOME gets DPI independence, that will
happen entirely indep
This is a very critical bug, and "won't fix" is really not acceptable.
It seems it's been discussed on the GNOME bugzilla that the default
should only revert to 96dpi when the real DPI is not available: that is,
either it's not detected at all, or the detected value is nonsensical
(e.g. 50 !> dpi
While I certainly agree with the reason for the bug, I nonetheless
believe it to be a bug. Given that it is rather difficult to fix, and
that it will not likely be fixed in Ubuntu, I'm adjusting this from
"Invalid" to "Won't Fix", which seems to better match the intent of the
statement about the b
