Are there Linux distributions that support HiDPI screens out of the box?

Question

linux

Good afternoon.
There is an ultrabook from ASUS with a 11.6" matrix and FullHD resolution. (DPI is about 190)
There is a desire to comfortably use GNU \ Linux, but so far it has not been possible ...
Question: are there already distributions in which support for HiDPI screens works out of the box?
What It seems like HiDPI
support was implemented in Gnome 3.10, I installed my usual OpenSuse 13.1 with Gnome, since it is just version 3.10 - scaling does not work out of the box, an attempt to find any crutches for changing DPI in gnome was unsuccessful.
KDE 4.11 from the delivery of the same OpenSuse 13.1 did not scale out of the box either, but you can select DPI in the settings - as a result, after raising DPI and manually setting the sizes of icons and panels, the fonts increased, but the geometry of the windows did not change, the windows are small, the text is not completely fits into this framework ... In general, everything looks terrible ...
With the latest XFCE, the same story as with sneakers, you can manually finish the DPI of the fonts, but the windows remain small, in the end everything looks terrible ... Does anyone
have Any experience in solving such Wishlist?

Answer 1

The easiest way is to start xorg right away with the -dpi 190 option.
In the case of kde, the file /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc is edited. Look for the line "ServerArgsLocal=-br -nolisten tcp" and add "-dpi 190" to it.
In other environments, it is similar, only the settings file is tedious to find your own. For example, for Ubuntu it is /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf. Look for it yourself in zyuz, I'm more than sure that this setting is out there.

Answer 3

Use KDE. I also have a zenbook, so far it's best with cadmi.
Configuration instructions: https://community.kde.org/KDE/High-dpi_issues#How_...
In gnome, change org.gnome.desktop.interface.scaling-factor to 2 in dconf-editor to enable hidpi mode. But I didn't like it, everything got too big. Here is the bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=720502

Answer 4

I could be wrong, but I think Elementary supports it out of the box. Read on their website.
