Hi Phil,

    :-) so - as I say; the DPI is a constant of 75 across the Linux
desktop, so this is not a switch but a hard coded setting :-)

I think you are over-reaching here:

        :-) So - I'm talking the Xft.dpi setting which is used by GNOME and
LibreOffice; cf.

        $ xrdb | grep Xft

scorpius pturmel ~
$ xdpyinfo | egrep "(dimensions|dots per inch)"
  dimensions:    3600x1080 pixels (905x272 millimeters)
  resolution:    101x101 dots per inch

        Sure; and these numbers have (traditionally) been notorious for their
unreliability - but perhaps that has improved in recent times.

        Thanks though :-)

                Michael.
