Description Yarda 2017-02-26 11:13:52 UTC
On the first X server start the DPI is correctly auto-detected:

NVIDIA(0): DPI set to (99, 98); computed from "UseEdidDpi" X config

But if I restart the X server the DPI starts to be wrongly auto-detected and the desktop is rendering in wrong size:

NVIDIA(0): DPI set to (30, 30); computed from "UseEdidDpi" X config

If I force DPI in xorg.conf it works OK. Reboot also helps. I tried older nvidia-drivers (two release back) and it also doesn't work. Maybe it's not nvidia-driver bug, but it seems so.

'modprobe -r nvidia' doesn't seem to help, it needs machine reboot to work again.
