Within /etc/xdg/xfce/xinitrc the Xft fallback option: Xft.dpi: 96 Xft.hinting: 1 Xft.hintstyle: hintmedium has been removed, which leads to much smaller fonts if e.g. default dpi settings 75x75 are used. Best Regards Marcus
Yes, that was removed on purpose. DPI should be set by Xorg based on the resolution and actual screen size.
Seems that several open source drivers (ati, nv, etc. ) are not able to read DCC and compute screen size. Some distribution force the DPI to work arround this problem while others don't. Therefore, I'll put back the default DPI as before.
Revision 25618 reintroduce the default Xft value.
Shipping this file by default override user choice (cf #3164) even if he has perfectly working Xorg. I don't think it's a good idea to ship it as user can manually set the DPI in a graphical way. Regards, -- Yves-Alexis Perez
