After upgrading my workstation with NVidia NVS 510 working on four HP LP2475w displays “rotated left” at 4800×1920, I’ve noticed really large fonts in KDE. Using System settings
and changing the font size and dpi did not really help, because some apps had after that too small fonts, like KeePass (running via mono). The system-wide solution was very simple, all it took was adding "UseEdidDpi" "false"
in the Monitor
section of /etc/X11/xorg.conf
:
Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Hewlett Packard" ModelName "HP LP2475w" HorizSync 30.0 - 94.0 VertRefresh 48.0 - 85.0 Option "DPMS" Option "UseEdidDpi" "false" EndSection
