Oops, not quite correct. This was the behavior with an xorg.conf file containing "Virtual 1600 1200". Without xorg.conf and using nvidia-settings to change resolutions the dpi reported by xdpyinfo appears to be correct - but the fonts still look ugly. no xorg.conf, nvidia-settings "auto" or 1024x768 screen #0: dimensions: 1024x768 pixels (394x291 millimeters) resolution: 66x67 dots per inch no xorg.conf, nvidia-settings 1600x1200: screen #0: dimensions: 1600x1200 pixels (394x291 millimeters) resolution: 103x105 dots per inch This message posted from opensolaris.org
