Ok, I have to disclosure that the only machine available here is Compaq laptop. And I get 75x75 dpi by default. I guess it's driver-specific. Matrox drivers got the most attention both from DRI and XFree86 developers - so I can guess that running G400 driver under XF will auto-detect correct dpi resolution. ATI Radeon should have no problems as well. But my ATI Rage Mobility with only 8MB or RAM is treated as *old* by X developers. So, there is no wonder it doesn't have auto-detect support. May I ask you which video adapter you use on desktop machine? -- Vadim Plessky http://kde2.newmail.ru (English) http://kde2.newmail.ru/index_rus.html (Russian) Do you have Arial font installed?
