What kind of device do you have? Sounds amazing! In any case, I was only repeating the proposed solution of the GNOME developers. If there is a better solution, such as a user dialogue or something, that would be great. I doubt you'll want to run Ubuntu on a .75" display in any case, as you surely couldn't read anything without a magnifying glass!
I just wanted to point out the following Brainstorm Ideas in support of this change: 161 votes: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/7415/ 136 votes: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/3448/ 57 votes: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/2921/ Of course there may be some overlap here, but that's over 350 people who support DPI auto-detection. I really think this needs to be re- considered . Even if GNOME doesn't implement it by default, Ubuntu can do so easily with a small patch. I would write it myself if I knew it was going to get applied. The user should not even be allowed to choose DPI him or herself, other than to correct a failed auto-detection, as it is a physical characteristic of the display. We could then use a new "UI scale" option, but this is a separate issue. -- GNOME default DPI doesn't match X default DPI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157398 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
