Re: [Xquartz-dev] X11 siplay resolution

My only concern is that the -dpi setting will be wrong with some displays. We should really be querying the native window system and hardware to retrieve such data.

hhmm, I've tested this on my iMac 20" and on my MacBook 13.3". Although the iMac has a physical display resolution of ~ 98 dpi and the MacBook 113 dpi, setting "-dpi 96" in startx gives me the same font sizes, compared to non-X11 apps. Somehow it seems to me, that the internal resolution X11 uses, is 96 dpi, regardless of the physical display resolution. But maybe Jeremy could tell us more about this issue. Simone
