Fixed rootless too: https://git.launchpad.net/~xmir-team/xorg-server/+git/xmir/commit/?id=cb043eb35dbd2a8c418f328396b882be31de4cab Warning: Now the bug is fixed you're still going to see some (significant but no longer absurd) font size differences between apps because the apps themselves are actually quite different. Gimp and Firefox honour the screen DPI and will scale up for the phone screen (less so than before the bug was fixed). However other simpler GTK apps don't bother and will appear very small still. This is down to the apps themselves being well written for high-DPI or not. If in doubt, check 'xdpyinfo' to see what the physical screen dimensions being reported by Xmir are. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1509075 Title: [xmir] Dialogs/fonts are scaled way too big To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-pocket-desktop/+bug/1509075/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Also, GIMP is still buggy.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1509075] Re: [xmir] Dialogs/fonts are scaled way too big
Reproduced. The issue appears to be: (gimp:20084): Gimp-Widgets-WARNING **: GDK returned bogus values for the screen resolution, using 96 dpi instead. (gimp:20084): Gimp-Widgets-WARNING **: GDK returned bogus values for the screen resolution, using 96 dpi instead. which sounds wrong for two reasons: 1. Even after working around #6, xrandr reports valid dimensions (61mm x 102mm) 2. If gimp/GDK really is falling back to 96 dpi then fonts would not appear large at all. They would appear normal (too small). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1509075 Title: [xmir] Dialogs/fonts are scaled way too big To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-pocket-desktop/+bug/1509075/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Ok, another interesting data point. If I use '--rootless --flatten' and remove Compiz from the equation, then scaling is fine, so it seems it's specific to non-rootless on arm. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1509075 Title: [xmir] Dialogs/fonts are scaled way too big To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-pocket-desktop/+bug/1509075/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1509075] Re: [xmir] Dialogs/fonts are scaled way too big
Just to be clear, this was seen originally in version 2:1.17.2-1ubuntu0.1~overlay5 from the overlay PPA. The issue goes away in version 2:1.17.2-1ubuntu0.1~overlay5+ppa1 from the libertine PPA.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1509075] Re: [xmir] Dialogs/fonts are scaled way too big
And another data point is that the scaling issue did not occur on my N4 when using Xmir from https://launchpad.net/~libertine- team/+archive/ubuntu/devel/+packages. As a matter of fact, I downgraded xmir to the version in the libertine PPA and the scaling issue no longer occurs, so I'm pretty sure this is an Xmir issue on arm. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1509075 Title: [xmir] Dialogs/fonts are scaled way too big To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-pocket-desktop/+bug/1509075/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

As a data point, everything looks fine when using a Libertine chroot on a *desktop* system based on Vivid+overlay.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1509075] Re: [xmir] Dialogs/fonts are scaled way too big
I think it's likely we need to involve other packages/projects in this bug. I'm not sure how Xmir itself could be involved other than here: Xmir reports the physical display dimensions from Mir through XRandR: $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1200, maximum 32767 x 32767 VGA-0 disconnected DP-0 disconnected HDMI-0 disconnected DP-1 disconnected HDMI-1 disconnected DP-2 connected 1920x1200+0+0 520mm x 320mm 1920x1200@60.0Hz 59.88*+ DP-3 disconnected However (by design) if you are using non-rootless mode and happen to resize the root window then those physical display dimensions are removed. Apparently because the root window no longer relates to a physical output any more: $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1612 x 1055, maximum 32767 x 32767 So it's possible that clients like GTK might get confused by the loss of the display information with which to calculate the output DPI.
