How are you setting the DPI everywhere else?

Well, dunno. We are just using Pango. And I guess that Pango wants to be told
about the DPI value it should use. However, I have no idea which of the various
Gnome parts normally does this, all of which we don't use (gtk?).
If you want to do this by hand (and are using awesome 3.5), add this to your
rc.lua (and tell me if this actually works):
require("lgi").PangoCairo.FontMap.get_default():set_resolution(120)
Cheers,
Uli

Shouldn't one set this via the xorg.conf? I think there was an option to set the DPI for each screen, which should be determined usually automaticaly?

AFAIK it's global per display, and I've had some trouble setting it from
xorg.conf.
However you can set it from your .xinitrc using "xrandr --fbmm". Here's
an example to set it to the actual DPI of your display instead of a
hard-coded value of 96 DPI:
xrandr --fbmm `xrandr | sed -n '/ connected / {s/.* \([0-9]\+\)mm x
\([0-9]\+\)mm/\1x\2/p;q}'`
However, you won't need this if you're using the NVIDIA proprietary
driver, because they're doing The Right Thing™: the DPI is set to match
the DPI actually reported by your screen.
Other Xorg drivers (nouveau, intel, radeon or whatever), OTOH, read the
actual DPI from the screen, and then discard it and set it to 96 dpi "to
be consistent with Windows". But hey, don't worry, it's NOTABUG
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23705).

Re: How to change Awesome WM's DPI from 96 to 120?
Hi all You can set dpi of your screen at least in 4 ways: 1. Xorg.conf - setting the dpi value or the screen size in (mm) 2. In .Xresources or .Xdefaults 3. Using the command *xrandr* 4. When stating X with *startx* using the arguments -dpi Relative to awesome I don't know... I would like to now... But after all I'm disappointed... I've 2 laptops now, and I was expecting that setting the correct DPI in each laptop they would display the same font size... for example in *urxvt* where you set the font size in pt units... But this doesn't happens... Actually I was expecting that the fonts displayed in the screen had +- the same size of the ones printed on a paper... But I can't achieve that. Anyone can explain this? Thanks? And relative to awesome wm I would be very happy if there was an working solution. Thanks __ Cumprimentos André Pinhal
