[Yeah, that's probably the case, but I think Stephan would also like a
fix to this situation.]
Stephan: There should be a file /etc/X11/gdm/Xservers with a line
resembling the following.
:0 local /usr/bin/X11/X vt7 -deferglyphs 16 -dpi 100
Be sure that the value after -dpi reads 100.
This assumes that startx actually starts with 100dpi. You can verify
that by looking at the file /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc. There should be a
line like
exec /usr/bin/X11/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp $*
Note, again the -dpi 100.
