In XF86Config-4, i have the display set to 31.2cm wide:

When the default vesa mode of "1024x768" is started, XFree86.0.log says that the resolution is set at 100dpi when it should be 83dpi 25.4*(1024/312). This is an analog monitor.
(++) NV(0): DPI set to (100, 100)
(++) Means that the DPI was set on the command line with something like startx -- -dpi 100 Perhaps xdm/xdm or gdm does this for you ? The command line overrides the config file and the config file overrides what is probed via DDC.
Hi, I found it's more of a debian bug;) /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc contains:
#!/bin/sh exec /usr/bin/X11/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp
So i changed it to:
#!/bin/sh exec /usr/bin/X11/X -nolisten tcp
