Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
I just started using Lucid and a new monitor.
xdpyinfo reports 96 DPI while the monitor has 103.
I am using Xorg-Edgers; I hope it's OK to report the problem here
anyway.
According to Xorg.log the physical size and native resolution of the monitor
are correctly
detected but then instead of calculating the DPI from that information, 96 is
used:
[ 3.890] (II) RADEON(0): clock: 154.0 MHz Image Size: 474 x 297 mm
[ 3.890] (II) RADEON(0): Output DVI-0 using initial mode 1920x1200
[ 3.891] (==) RADEON(0): DPI set to (96, 96)
I will try to work around this by creating an /etc/X11/xorg.conf manually
but I expected the DPI to be set correctly without this.
