invalid lcd dpi calculated

[Dmitriy Geels]

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

When I first installed Jaunty alpha 6, xdpyinfo shown correct dpi - 125.
But after updates from 24.03 dpi was set to 96. But Xorg.0.log still shows correct screen size:
dmig@dmig-laptop:~$ grep 965 /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Image size is correct here. But not in xdpyinfo output:
screen #0:
  dimensions: 1280x800 pixels (339x212 millimeters)
  resolution: 96x96 dots per inch

Looks like, that something forced dpi to 96.

This is not an X bug. libgnome now overrides the correct dpi settings and forces them to 96. See bug 345189

This change was implemented in libgnome 2.26.0-0ubuntu2.
