           Summary: Wine is not reading the DPI setting from X - and is
                    defaulting it to a dumb value
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-x11driver
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: wowbagger at sktc.net


It does not seem that the X11 driver is correctly setting the DPI of the display
it is using, and defaults it to 72 DPI. This sucks mightily on my 1600x1200 19"
monitor, as it makes all the scaled fonts too small to read.

If I manually create the HKLM/[System\\CurrentControlSet\\Hardware
Profiles\\Current\\Software\\Fonts\\LoxPixels entry, and set it to 160, then
most of the fonts (all save the menu bar fonts) are scaled a bit more reasonably.
