Tcl70, my Samsung LNA650 HDTV also shows huge fonts, for some
applications but not others. This TV also reports a ridiculous size. The
fix is to tell X to ignore the bogus EDID from the television.

I found this to work, at least with my nvidia graphics card:

Section "Monitor"
       Identifier      "Samsung" # LNA650

# from Samsung manual, for 1920x1080p:
#        HorizSync    67.500
#        VertRefresh  60.000
# http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Specifying_DPI_for_NVIDIA_Cards
        Option    "UseEdidDpi"  "FALSE"
        Option    "DPI"  "100 x 100"
EndSection
