I have the same problem. Here is my xdpyinfo output AFTER setting xrandr --dpi 125
screen #0: dimensions: 1280x900 pixels (260x182 millimeters) resolution: 125x126 dots per inch depths (7): 24, 1, 4, 8, 15, 16, 32 root window id: 0x54 depth of root window: 24 planes number of colormaps: minimum 1, maximum 1 default colormap: 0x20 default number of colormap cells: 256 preallocated pixels: black 0, white 16777215 options: backing-store NO, save-unders NO it's REALLY screwed up, and Kaffeine refuses to play video except for a sliver, since the original resolution calls for something like 32000 DPI vertically multiplied by 80 horizontally or something. To be perfectly clear: for some reason DDC EDID retrievals retrieve the RIGHT Display Size from the monitor, yet X seems to munge it somehow. If I specify a manual DisplaySize, the log shows that X picks the manual size up, nonetheless the DPI gets absurdly distorted (121x188 or something, when it should be more like 121x122). Please help! -- DPI is set incorrectly by new driver, even when DisplaySize is set in xorg.conf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/141146 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
