Hi,
> > What does it mean change DPI setting in X and dont't change monitor? DPI is a fixed property of your monitor. So, if you change that setting in a given computer the fonts will change size. If you want all your computers to display fonts the same size you need to set each computer to it's correct DPI setting. > I synchronized X DPI setting and gnome DPI setting, but the problem persists. If by "the problem" you mean "when X change dpi, and I change it accordingly in gnome-font-properties, font size changes" you didn't understand my previous mail since that's not a problem at all it's a feature.
That's what I was trying to find out:) Is it a feature, or is it a bug.

Possibly because they're getting their DPI setting from somewhere else and not acting correctly on your changes. Anyway, *those* apps are the ones showing incorrect behaviour, GNOME is doing the right thing by reacting to your DPI change.
Mozilla uses system setting, what does that mean I do not know. But I do not fully agree that GNOME is doing the right thing. First of all it does not react to DPI change. I have to change it manually and restart GNOME. Secondly the font size becomes relative. Fonts with the same size look differently in different DPI settings. Thirdly, because of all that in order to change resolution I have to restart X and after figuring out DPI GNOME, that's one restart too many. Thanx very much for your answers!
