10.5: Change the default X server DPI setting
Just in case anyone is wanting to make this setting permanent with Tiger's X11, do the following.
open a terminal and type
open the nano text editor and create a new file called X11, like so
cut and paste the following into nano
Save the file by pressing ctrl+x then y
Now type
The next time you start X11 it should have a more reasonably sized fonts.
10.5: Change the default X server DPI setting
Erm, you're just calling the real X11 script with your own, without doing anything else. You forgot the most significant part.
I think you meant to put a #!/bin/bash /Applications/Utilities/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11.real -dpi 75 $@
10.5: Change the default X server DPI setting
D'oh! You're completely right, except that you wouldn't want to use -dpi 75 or you'd get the traditional teeny sized fonts - Something a little more in line with the actual DPI of modern monitors around 90 to 100 is better, especially when running X clients remotely which I do quite often. |
