Bugzilla – Bug 155686
XGL calculates dpi wrongly
Last modified: 2006-03-10 15:02:01 UTC
With Xorg, as printed by xdpyinfo: dimensions: 1920x1200 pixels (332x210 millimeters) resolution: 147x145 dots per inch Same configuration and Xgl running: dimensions: 1920x1200 pixels (508x318 millimeters) resolution: 96x96 dots per inch
I know that it has been discussed if DPI should actually be calculated like Xorg is doing it or if it should be set to something more useful like kdrive and Xgl is doing. However, I think it makes sense to have Xgl use Xorg's DPI setting when running on top of it so I'll try to fix this asap.
Fixed in CVS.
David, I suggest closing bugs only if an updated package is available. I'm in the process of generating a new Xgl package, but I'm stumbling over several generic build errors. Will have that fixed soon, hopefully.
Fixed in stable.
