Yes, I would really like to see this as well. I was carrying a simple patch to do this for some time, but lost it on an upgrade. So I stayed with 75dpi and made my fonts smaller but they just do not look as nice. I've been meaning to get it back to 96 dpi. As almost ALL macs have at least 96 dpi, this is the sensible default, not 75 dpi as it is now. I'll send a patch along when I get back on my Leopard machine (this one is still Tiger).

Some while ago this topic was discussed on the x11-users mailinglist and a bug report was filed

how the X11 display resoultion of 75 dpi could be easily changed to the more appropriate 96 dpi. For more information see this hint

Since the fix is quite small, is there any chance that this will go into the upcoming 2.3.2 ? Setting
defaultserverargs="-dpi 96"
in /usr/X11/bin/startx will be sufficient.
Thx Simone
