But if your monitor is digital, this is a bad idea. There was a recent discussion on this list about why it is a bad idea; the summary is that the dots will not align properly for text on a lower resolution. Everything will look fuzzy. If you are using X, and an analog monitor, you can put a configuration file in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d. A search on the web will give you the format. Use xrandr to get the numbers to plug in. I don't know how to do this for wayland. But I think the better thing for you to do is to up the size of fonts that everything uses, if possible. Text will look a lot better. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
