Description Peter Poklop 2009-05-15 07:39:46 UTC

Samsung Syncmaster 2333HD LCD monitor reports incorrect displaysize (518mm x 32mm) which leads to very large font sizes in kdm and kde.

With the entry "DisplaySize" in xorg.conf i can wokraround the issue when connected with vga. With a dvi connection the problem remains.
