I am running vncserver and xvncviewer on the same machine (debian unstable). My desktop environment is KDE. I noticed that the font sizes inside the xvncviewer are much smaller that the original KDE session. The problem exists even if I open a file using gvim on both the environments. Can someone explain me why this is happening and what I should do to get rid of this problem?

   When you start xvncserver make sure to specify the proper -dpi settings.

I am using vncserver and there is no option to set the dpi. I did

man vncserver and searched for dpi and there were no matches.


$vncserver -h
usage: vncserver [:<number>] [-name <desktop-name>] [-depth <depth>]
                [-geometry <width>x<height>]
                [-pixelformat rgbNNN|bgrNNN]
                <Xvnc-options>...
      vncserver [-clean] -kill :<number>

This also does not show where the dpi setting should be set. I have installed vncserver and is it different from xvncserver?

apt-file search xvncserver did not result in any matches. Thanks for any more hints.

thanks
raju
