OK, X was working well on my Samsung TV because at some point they introduced a "quirk" that informed the world that the idiots at Samsung set the size of the TV to 160x90 just to get the aspect ratio right in the EDID info, so Xorg.0.log says things like this:
[ 4.694] (II) Quirked EDID physical size to 0x0 cm then later the intel video driver arbitrarily does this: [ 4.695] (==) intel(0): DPI set to (96, 96) Now, in Fedora 20, the Gnomes are apparently going to some vast amount of trouble to ignore the X DPI, and dig up the low level EDID provided display size in order to utterly screw everything up and make the characters on my screen be about the size of baseballs. Curse all "helpful" software to the uttermost depths of hades! Anyone know how to get latest gnome to believe the DPI setting and not blow up 12pt fonts to gigantic proportions? -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
