To set screen size: In xorg.conf in 'Section "Screen"' find 'SubSection "Display"' for the color depth you want and either set a size for 'Virtual' (e.g. 1600 1200) or set at least one size for 'Modes' (e.g. "1600x1200"). To set DPI, one option for getting a suitable one is to force it. In 'Section "Monitor"', add one line from here: http://mrmazda.no-ip.com/tmp/DisplaySize Another option if you have a supported display adapter is "UseEDID". You can Google that one. I don't have any hardware that supports it. Another DPI option is /etc/X11/Xresources, where you can force one, such as "Xft.dpi: 108".
