Is there some reason x2goclient doesn't set the DPI to match the local display by default?

it may also well be that none of has ever thought about querying the
local X-server for its DPI.
Please file two bugs, one against python-x2go, one against x2goclient
and possibly even provide a patch!

Filed bug 164 for x2goclient with a patch. May look at python-x2go later.

The patch looks fine. I wait for Alex to approve it. With python-x2go,
please note that there is not x-platform way of detecting the local
DPI value. On Linux you probably can use python-xlib. On Windows you
maybe will be successful with win32api. Don't bother about MacOS X at
this point as it is not supported by python-x2go, yet, anyway.
Thanks for your contributions!!! Mike
