I just went through this last week with Debian Wheezy using a large television driven by an Nvidia card with the proprietary Nvidia driver. I added Option "DPI" "100 x 100" to my xorg.conf in the Device section for the Nvidia card. In your case I think you should be able to replace your echo statement with: echo -e 'Section "Device"\n\tIdentifier "My GPU"\n\tDriver "nvidia"\n\tOption "DPI" "100 x 100"\nEndSection' > /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf Watch out for line wrapping, this should all be on one line. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
