Your DisplaySize setting is probably being ignored. Functional DDC in recent xorg versions usually renders DisplaySize impotent. Undo your force in KDE, add to /etc/X11/xorg.conf in 'Section "Device"' for your graphics card the line 'Option "NoDDC"', then restart X. If that or that and subsequent tweaking of the DisplaySize dimensions solves the problem it means DDC on your equipment isn't working right for you, which isn't necessarily the same thing as being broken. http://www.mozilla.org/unix/dpi.html has more about tweaking DPI generally. -- "Respect everyone."
