Hi Michael,
Hmmmmm, I always thought that the dpi value is mainly used to calibrate screen font size. i thought it is used to project the same sized "objects" on different amounts of pixels The system needs to know the size of a pixel in order to draw fonts with the correct size. But I don't see how the dpi value is linked to display clearness and strange color effects... the color effects arise mostly in white fonts on black background i really arent able to see any effects on icons... or there arent any effects
What monitors are you using? CRT or TFTs?
analog TFTs but the Clock and Phase hasnt changed (i controlled this before my first posting) and the effects are since my update to KDE3.4
However, for your resolution of 2560x1024 and the DisplaySize of 678x270 mm the dpi value 96 dpi seems perfect. I get the same result when calculating it by hand. may be it should be perfect with 96dpi but i had 97 dpi already and it is obviosly much clearer (i got this value calculated by Mozilla)
