Hmmm . . . I have added this to the xorg.conf, as suggested by -users
people:
Option "DPI" "346 x 195"
But it didn't help -- although -- your mention of xinerama caught my
attention.
I am using twinview to simultaneously display on my screen and on
S-Video -- could that be what's causing the confusion? xorg.conf attached.
