Sounds simple and clear, but I do it, and get the same result...?
2009> ll ~/.Xdefaults
-rw-r--r-- 1 emagiro EEI-ATusers 12 2010-04-29 19:18
/home/emagiro/.Xdefaults
2009> cat ~/.Xdefaults
Xft.dpi: 75
I tried a smaller value (50), but no effect.
And now I start getting errors:
File error: Doing vfork, resource temporarily unavailable
while retrying... Not every time.
