I have tested a new install of Lucid on the MPC-L with the same Samsung display and it appears to be resolved now. ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: Expired = Fix Released -- Incorrect autodetection of appropriate DPI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394498 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[This is an automatic notification.] Hi Tony, This bug was reported against an earlier version of Ubuntu, can you test if it still occurs on Lucid? Please note we also provide technical support for older versions of Ubuntu, but not in the bug tracker. Instead, to raise the issue through normal support channels, please see: http://www.ubuntu.com/support If you are the original reporter and can still reproduce the issue on Lucid, please run the following command to refresh the report: apport-collect 394498 If you are not the original reporter, please file a new bug report, so we can work with you as the original reporter instead (you can reference bug 394498 in your report if you think it may be related): ubuntu-bug xorg If by chance you can no longer reproduce the issue on Lucid or if you feel it is no longer relevant, please mark the bug report 'Fix Released' or 'Invalid' as appropriate, at the following URL: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/394498 ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = New ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete ** Tags added: needs-retested-on-lucid-by-june -- Incorrect autodetection of appropriate DPI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394498 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 394498] Re: Incorrect autodetection of appropriate DPI
Hi Bryce, sorry for the delay in responding, I've been on holiday! I'm not sure why none of the files attached to the report the DPI as 29x39. This was the DPI reported by xdpyinfo when running X without the DisplaySize hardcoded in xorg.conf or when X is started without the VGA cable attached to the PC. I've not used the command line bug reporting tool before. I was told to start X using the broken configuration and then start X with a working default then run the ubuntu bug command line tool. That's what I did, but I see that the xorg.conf and xdpyinfo output attached to the report is the working version, not the broken one. I put a DisplaySize line in to xorg.conf, calculated as best I could following the formula given on the ubuntu forums, which suited my 32 TFT TV. This is a 16:9 display but I don't think the graphics card in the MPC-L computer supports widescreen resolutions, so I was aiming to run the display at 1280x1024. With this DisplaySize line in place, text is rendered clearly. Without it, text is tiny on the screen. Having looked at the wiki page you posted above it seems likely that it is an EDID issue. The Max Image Size in the xorg log file is 10cm bigger in both dimensioons than the visible screen size on the TV. I'm not sure whether this is sufficiently incorrect to cause this error? I have had this issue with Xubuntu and Openbox. Due to the very low spec of the CPU in the MPC-L it is very slow running KDE or GNOME. However, Openbox uses gdm AIUI and the issue is present there. -- Incorrect autodetection of appropriate DPI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394498 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 394498] Re: Incorrect autodetection of appropriate DPI
Several things are confusing in this report. You mention that it comes up with a 29x39 dpi, however none of your log files show that dpi. Second, your xorg.conf appears to be hardcoding the DisplaySize... why? Third, your xdpyinfo.txt file shows 1280x1024 pixels (361x203 millimeters), which is 90x128 dots per inch, and that does not look incorrect. One other question, are you using GNOME or KDE? On Jaunty's GNOME it should already be forcing it to a fixed dpi, which gets around a lot of the issues. Beyond this, I've written up a guide on how to debug font size issues due to incorrect dpi.
