Hallo List,

this is my first post, so if you need further information let me know.

I compiled X from CVS and everything is working well, but the fonts
look "condensed"; the characters are too tall. I usually use the
"-dpi 100" option when starting X. The screen resolution is
1280x1024x16. My Monitor is not able to provide DDC information.

Why is the resolution set to '80x85 dots per inch' ?

Thanks,
Patrick
