OK, if I set the displaysize to 400x300, which is WAY larger than it is, I
get
screen #0:
dimensions: 1600x1200 pixels (402x302 milimeters)
resolution: 101x101 dots per inch
and the font size is 'reasonable'.
It would seem that there should be a 'pitch' size somewhere (I dont see it
in the xorg.conf man page) as these numbers for the dimension are WAY off.
The second point:
I see NO difference in Font size between setting 'Small' and 'Big'
in Utilities/Setup->Setup->Appearance->FontSize
The characters are 12mm tall in either case.
Where are THESE font sizes set? MythTV? QT? X11?
