I'm not particularly sure that I agree that it's below that level. It is controlling the graphics in a way that directly suits the graphical user interface (number of screens and their arrangement), which can easily need to be a per-user, or per-situation, configuration. I tend to agree regarding things like resolution. Screen dimensions and resolutions are fixed entities, and should be set to exactly match the hardware involved. For people who don't like the size of what's on the screen, their ought to be a *SEPARATE* sizing option, one that takes graphics and text into account. And, no, I don't mean buggering up DPI to false values. These days, we have the ability to have some really high resolution screens, and we often have digital photography that is well in excess of the screen resolutions. So simply playing with screen is X by Y pixels to set things up is really inadequate. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
