Fair enough. > That said, I reread comment 6, which does indicate manual intervention via > config file or xrandr is normally required to achieve accurate DPI, normal > meaning ATI, Intel or NVidia, chips that have current version xrandr-supported > drivers. I don't want to push too much, but up until now all feedback to this bug has been (or at least this is how it reads to me): - autodetection of DPI is deprecated - 96 dpi ought to be enough for anybody :) Does this mean you agree that under normal circumstances the DPI should be the one detected from EDID and 96 is just a fall-back value in case auto-detection fails? Because I don't believe anyone here disagrees 96 should be uses as *fall-back*, we just don't want it *overriding* correctly auto-detected values.
