--- Comment #18 from Matthias Hopf
If we had a way to pass the different viewport sizes and resolutions to the client the client toolkit could do something much smarter already. (Maybe XRandR already allows for this).
Not to my knowledge. Also, xrandr has a --dpi switch, but that (again) is global and not per head.
For dump applications this calculation could be done in the server and the root window size could be whacked to match this resolution (as it is done today).
Again, then DPI calculations break, I would consider that a no-go.
Unfortunately noone has caught on to this. The reason may be that the people I've talked to were all developers - those people have a different usage pattern: they clutter up their screens with as many terminal windows as possible and read them from a close distance.
And use fixed as font. Or 8x13 or whatever. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
