I can offer you a Mickey Mouse solution that I use, but it might not suit you. If instead of gdm you start X manually (with the "startx" command), you can pass these parameters to it:

  startx -- -dpi 100

or even larger...

  startx -- -dpi 120

You can put these settings into a script file so you don't have to type them each time.

Hope this helps.
