Confirming on lucid, I have the same issue as comment #19 My issue is the following: I switch several times per day between a laptop (131 dpi) and external monitor (92 dpi), and I want GNOME to recognize the switch, keeping the physical font size. Doing
gconftool-2 --unset /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/dpi after every login achieves what I want - it adjusts the dpi to what my current screen actually has so that fonts have the same physical size. What code, what service, is responsible for resetting that value *every* time i login, so that I need to unset it again? Does anyone know so I can hack around it or add a bug report? I *can* manually add the above line to my startup programs, I'll test that... -- 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 Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
