However, Linux GUIs are very good at geometric upscaling, so I suggest
increasing font and icon sizes.
I'll try that anyway; it may give me a better compromise. Thanks.
I've had the same problem on a high resolution (1920x1080), small size
screen (15.6"). The characters are tiny and anything else but native
resolution makes images and characters blurred. The solution was to
increase the font size on the terminals and KDE apps. However, I don't
know how to make the characters in the Firefox menus and body larger. Am
I supposed to run gconftool-2 with some esoteric options?
There's a package that lets GTK apps look like KDE apps, including font,
called kcm_gtk. It adds a page to System settings under
Appearance->Appearance called GTK styles and fonts.
Running fluxbox myself, but the idea should work across desktops: use
xrandr and lie to X about the physical size of your screen. On my TV I
run xrandr first once without arguments to get the actual size, dive the
sizes by two and run xrandr like so: "xrandr --fbmm 443x247". This is a
32" 16:9 TV. Stick this last bit somewhere early in your login-sequence.
Works beautifylly.
