I have just tested the proposed packages on HP nw8240 with ATI FireGL V5000 (PCIE) with 15.4" (310x210mm), 1920x1200 panel. As expected, this workaround causes that DPI is hardcoded to 96 - xdpyinfo diff:

I think this is step back for high-resolution displays (>120 DPI), as they will get fonts (and other UI widgets) smaller then they are defined (in terms of pt). -- DPI in kubuntu incorrect on xorg-video-driver-intel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151311 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
