[Bug 311485] Re: Logix Monitor: Default Resolution Not Valid

[Geir Ove Myhr]

It seems that you have two separate problems (which of course may have common cause). 
1. The resolution is wrong (you want 1280x960, but get 1400x1050)
2. X thinks the physical size of the monitor is 4x3 mm and therefore makes huge fonts to make them have a minimum size in millimeters.

Both may be related to bad EDID information and can probably be
overridden in xorg.conf. From your Xorg.0.log it looks like you have
some settings in /var/log/xorg.conf. Could you attach that file? Could
you also move that file to a different name and log in/out to restart X
and see if that makes a difference?

Finally, since parse-edid seems to strip away the information about
physical monitor size, could you maybe give the output of `sudo get-edid
| hd`. This will show the binary 128 bytes of EDID info in a human
readable way. (I haven't had a look at the EDID 1.0 specification yet,
but EDID 1.1 seems to be easy to decipher from this format).
