> 1280x800 (in 15") what is the DPI? (how can I evaluate the DPI of a monitor?) 1-You can calculate it. Divide the inches your display measures (~12.7" wide) into the screen resolution (1280px aka dots wide) == ~107 DPI. 2-Look it up in a chart: http://fm.no-ip.com/auth/dpi.xhtml http://fm.no-ip.com/auth/displays.xhtml There are several ways to see what X thinks DPI is: 1-http://fm.no-ip.com/auth/dpi-screen-window.html 2-xdpyinfo | grep resolution 3-xrdb -query | grep dpi 4-kcmshell xserver (only if KDE is installed) All 3 should match, but don't be surprised if they don't. One reason they might not is that Firefox will not go below 96 unless you change the default -1 setting of its hidden hidden preference "layout.css.dpi" to 0. Also, Firefox doesn't round very well, so might be off by 3 purely due to rounding (e.g. 108 actual has 111 reported). -- "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up."
