I am experiencing something related to this bug (specifically Alexander Sack's wontfix in #43) using UNR Karmic Alpha 2 on an Acer Aspire One.
The screen resolution is about 134 dpi, but fonts are rendered by default at 96 dpi: $ xdpyinfo | grep resolution resolution: 133x135 dots per inch $ gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/dpi 96 ...the result is headache-inducing on the very small (~9" diagonal) screen. Setting 134 dpi manually is much better. UI elements *do* eat up a lot more screen real estate, but I personally much prefer that to squinting at the screen or having to lean very close to it. I don't know what the proper thing to do is, so I will add the 'karmic' and 'ubuntu-unr' tags; if I should report a separate bug, please let me know. ** Tags added: karmic ubuntu-unr -- Default font size too large if using native DPI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310353 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
