I am not sure. KDE seems to be handling the change reasonably well, though I 
did have to tweak the fonts a bit after switching to 3.2.1.

The problem is very bad in gtk applications (gqview and gimp), where the fonts 
are barely readable.

I did look in the XFree log file, and there is a line from display 
initialisation which says.

(==) SIS(0): DPI set to (75, 75)

I have rebooted a couple of times and that doesn't change anything.

Also I checked in /etc/kde3/kdm/Xservers

There is no -dpi 100 option in there.
