Re: XEmacs ignores system dpi settings

Hello Stephen, Thank you for the prompt response and for the explanation.

It also reported Xft.dpi: 108 which is different from the value returned by xdpyinfo: 98. Actually "98" is a current setting in Gnome's "Preferences". The display dimensions returned by xdpyinfo are: 1920x1200 pixels (496x310 millimeters). The resolution is correct but the size is not: the physical display size is 518.4 x 324 mm. It is strange because the size reported by /var/log/Xorg.0.log is correct: (**) intel(0): Display dimensions: (520, 320) mm (**) intel(0): DPI set to (93, 95) I am attaching the outputs from "xdpyinfo", "xrdb query" and "describe-installation". The display is 24" Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP, The video card is Mobile Intel GM965 Express Chipset, the driver is "intel". Thank you again. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
