Hi hi,
FYI: I've googled around, but still found no satisfying solutions.
I'm trying to use the native resolution from my large LCD, which is 1920x1200, but I can't find the 1920x1200 option in the Display Preference (I've added 1920x1200 in the xorg.conf, and I've tried using the xrandr --fbmm 1920x1200). The highest resolution available is 1920x1080.
Currently, the font looks very blurry.. and hurt my eyes after several minutes of use. I'm wondering, do I need a special fonts for large monitors, or what fonts DPI should I be using (at the moment is 96dpi).
Thanks in advance for your help.
