setting DPI under LXDE

Just install LXDE on an atom based machine but the DPI isn't right to my eye. I can't figure out where to configure the DPI for the LXDE. I should say that I can configure it in my xorg.conf but I use the box in a headless mode (no keyboard, mouse, or monitor) and for some reason, X won't start automatically without a monitor. I access the box via tightvnc and it is here where I need to set the DPI to 96x96 but have no idea how!
Thanks!

Answer is to include the DPI command in the /etc/xorg.conf
Code: Select all
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
Option "DPI" "96 x 96"
EndSection

He means /etc/X11/xorg.conf I think. If that does not exist, you can create it by:
- turning off X
- running 'X -configure' as root
- copying (or moving) /root/xorg.conf.new to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
