Since the massive overhaul of X and video drivers that got serious sometime last summer, the already vexing issue of DPI generally got a lot more complex. It didn't use to matter what your hardware was, the basics remained the same. Now the problems and answers often depend heavily on your gfxcard. Take a look at the #2 link on http://mrmazda.no-ip.com/auth/Font/fonts-linux-about.html for the traditional explantion. The other links here could be helpful, but DPI now on Linux is such a moving target that it's hard to be helpful. Often the easiest way through these issues, if 3D and games don't matter to you, is old gfxcards that don't get the new driver features like intel, nvidia and ati get. Of course, the fact you're running Rawhide should mean you're willing to participate in getting the bugs found and worked out of new features. :-) -- "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
