Since the original patch no longer applies to current master, and I've had an updated patch lying around for some time, I'm posting it here so it doesn't get lost. It seems to still work but it's only been lightly tested. I no longer care about this issue, since the available solutions are sufficient for me. I'll leave the rest to the people who do care. Cheers.

I tested it and actually didn't see what I expected, so I'm not sure what's going wrong: $ rpm -q xorg-x11-server-Xorg xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.10.4-1.3.fc15.x86_64 $ grep -C2 Dont /etc/X11/xorg.conf Section "ServerFlags" Option "AIGLX" "on" Option "DontForce96DPI" "on" EndSection $ xrandr|grep LV LVDS connected 1366x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 293mm x 164mm $ xdpyinfo|grep dimens dimensions: 1366x768 pixels (361x203 millimeters) I rebased Nick's original patch but I don't think I ended up with something any different than his most recently-posted, rebased patch.

When I set DefaultDPI to auto I get 86 DPI on my 15" screen. Somewhat odd is that setting DefaultDPI to 123 gives 124 DPI on my 17" screen.

Would it be good to mirror what nvidia's already using? I know their driver called it "UseEDIDDPI", but I don't recall what Section it went in.
