- Subject: xserver-xorg-video-intel: WidthMMOfScreen() thinks I have a 1mm monitor.

Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.3.2-2+lenny6
Severity: normal
With the Intel driver, WidthMMOfScreen() returns 1mm and HeightMMOfScreen()
returns 257mm. If I use the vesa driver instead the macros report a 383x293
screen. My monitor's a big old Dell CRT on a standard VGA connector.
Adding an explicit DisplaySize directive to the Monitors section fixes it,
but IMO the intel driver should be able to autodetect monitor size if the
vesa one can - or at least guess more-sensible values than 1x257mm.
Fixing this will also close #524310 - fontforge uses WidthMMOfScreen() to
calculate pixel sizes for fonts, so a 1mm screen led to it trying to draw
impractically large fonts. Some other programs may exhibit similar
behaviour.
-- demonstration C program --
#include <X11/Xlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc,char **argv)
{
Display *display = XOpenDisplay(NULL);
printf("The screen is %d millimeters wide.\n",WidthMMOfScreen(DefaultScreenOfDisplay(display)));
printf("The screen is %d millimeters high.\n",HeightMMOfScreen(DefaultScreenOfDisplay(display)));
}
