I can confirm that. I have got a "DisplaySize" directive in my xorg.conf which seems to be omitted. *** Bug 10431 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 10427 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 10728 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 10304 *** Unmark as a dupe of an unrelated bug. Looks like the compat_output is chosen to be VGA, despite not being connected. Do you need any further information? please read http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/7129 I find problem in driver intel : driver intel read not correctly info from DDC and set up wrong dimensions/resolution : before : xdpyinfo |grep -A1 dimensions dimensions: 1280x800 pixels (289x21 millimeters) resolution: 112x968 dots per inch FIX: to Section "Device" add line Option "DDC" "no" after: xdpyinfo |grep -A1 dimensions dimensions: 1280x800 pixels (338x211 millimeters) resolution: 96x96 dots per inch i know, is small hack, but works good ==> fix driver intel P.S. :sorry for my english, is bad Maybe it works for you, but it does not fix the problem, since the option "DDC" is only specified for the i810 and i815 chipsets (see man intel). The problem persists with xf86-video-intel-2.1.0 The solution from Alois Nespor worked for me. Now i have 96x96 DPI :) I have a 915GM card in a Dell laptop. HorizSync 31.5-105

You're specifying ranges beyond the capability of your monitor. Please remove them (and probably the rest of the custom configuration) and try again.
gah, wrong tab. The problem with driver intel is in driver: Common issues not caused by the driver - Font sizes (DPI) are wrong. Some displays incorrectly report their physical size, which is harmless on most OSes that always assume 96dpi displays. This can be fixed through quirks for specific monitors in the X Server, and the output of xrandr --prop along with a physical measurement of the screen size in a bug report against the server can help get that fixed. When is not driver fixed, will wrong DPI persist. It posibble, that error will fixed in new X.org 7.3 (xserver 1.4, xrandr 1.2) what are get out 5.September 2007. Please try the patch attached in comment 14 of bug 10304. Is this still a problem? This may also be a gtk or other problem even if the driver is fixed. This problem is resolved from https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10304 - intel driver now set correct DPI, the patch will in xorg-server 1.4.1 and must be the right set xorg.conf |
