The proprietary ATI driver for Linux tends to misdetect dpi when I plug in different monitors (plugging into a TV over HDMI after using with a normal DVI monitor). Either it correctly detects it has a low dpi (and fonts are unreadably small) or it thinks it has a very high dpi (and fonts are absurdly large). How do I tell it to always use a specific dpi?
I have already set a DisplaySize in mm for "Configured Monitor" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
. It seems to lose track of this after a few mode changes with the amdcccle
control panel.
That's for the radeon driver. I am using fglrx. – joeforker – 2009-08-20T02:56:48.163
ah sorry, try # man fglrx | grep dpi; I can't find it online. – lyarwood – 2009-08-20T10:10:44.480
