DPI Override

Hello,

first of all I'd like to thank you all very much for getting this thing back to being usable in the last few days. I'm using X11 at work for displaying the windows of my virtual Linux system, and I need it badly. At first I was considerably tempted to downgrade back to Tiger, which now does not seem to be necessary anymore...

1.2a7 indeed seems to fix my previously reported concerns with clicking-to-front X11 windows that are partially obscured by non-X11 windows. Stability also was rock-solid in the past few days, at least for my usage scenario being multiple KDE konsoles and the kate editor.

One question remains for me, though, which is: is it possible to somehow override the default 75DPI setting, maybe via some nifty plist entry? The Tiger X11 allowed for specifying the -dpi option to / Applications/Utilities/X11/Contents/MacOS/X11, but that no longer works.

Big thanks again and best regards,
Kai

Subject: Click-to-Front Problem

Hello,

I've noticed that the current problem of clicked X11 windows not reliably raising in front of Aqua windows was also observable under Tiger when using another window manager than quartz-wm. Is it possible that it is quartz-wm that takes care of properly raising X11 windows, and that this feature somehow fails to work in conjuction with the new X server (assuming that quartz-wm hasn't changed)?
