I can see relative keywords in /var/log/Xorg.0.log indicating DPI setting is adopted by Xserver, and I see big font size in the unity-greeter interface indicating larger DPI setting in xorg.conf take effects. However inside the desktop, DPI is reset to default (96,96) with no reason. Further I use xrandr to set DPI to a larger value but see no effect. Using xpdyinfo shows DPI is still (96,96). So does gnome just abandoned the display dpi feature in the application level? or is it mandatory to set dpi always to (96,96) by gnome?
