OK, I see what you mean here. It seems mostly affect the fonts on the side bar
here.
Font renderers need to do some rounding to make a character fit into a raster.
It could be that the difference in DPI just caused the renderer to jump form
one integer to the next when doing rounding.
At resolutions of around 100 dpi the size of fonts is still an approximation.
Pretty much what you got 15 years ago on dot matrix printers. So what you see
here is quite conceivable.
I'm unable to decide which font size looks 'right'.
I furthermore would think that the difference in DPI between radeonhd and fglrx
is due to different rounding inside the drivers. If we changed that now to suit
your needs it is conceivable that another person will come around and complain
that the the font size has changed for him.
What surprises me here: the log file you've attached now says 96x96 dpi.
Could you please use xdpyinfo to obtain the resolution a client would see?
