You have been subscribed to a public bug: Hi,
after upgrading my system to oneiric, the X11 desktop is ugly and almost unusable, because the fonts and characters are stretched horizontally and blurred. I guess that the reason is a wrong/odd dpi value, because xdpyinfo says screen #0: dimensions: 1600x1200 pixels (473x302 millimeters) resolution: 86x101 dots per inch I would prefer to simply give X a better dpi value as a command line argument, but as far as I can see that damned lightdm does not allow to configure any command line parameters for X (which I consider as broken design). Please tell me how oneiric is supposed to deal with that problem.
