I have an Asus EEE and the fonts are too big, so I changed this line in /usr/share/gdm/defaults.conf to force DPI to be 96x96

command=/usr/X11R6/bin/X -audit 0

to

command=/usr/X11R6/bin/X -dpi 96 -audit 0

This works when I login normally and when I open a new terminal with 'start menu'->'logout'->'switch user', but if I use the ScreenLock->'new login' the new login is NOT forced to dpi 96 and the fonts are again too big. How can I fix that?

I would not handle this with gdm, because it is not an specific thing for gdm to switch DPI, it is more an X point.
You could add

Code: Select all

Option "DPI"   "96 x 96"

to /etc/X11/xorg.conf int the Monitor Section.
That should solve your problem.
