I have a Samsung LN-S2641D LCD TV 26&quot;. I'm trying to configure it with CentOS, but I'm having issues. First off the system-config-display application doesn't list this device, obviously because it's new, so I'm attempting to choose generic LCD, but it doesn't have one listed with the TVs native resolution: 1360x768.<br />
<br />
So I decide to go into /etc/X11/xorg.conf directly. But I see there is one parameter called &quot;DisplaySize&quot;, and I have determined it's calculated by using the dotpitch of the screen multiplied by the native resolution.<br />
<br />
Well, I've checked the specs of this thing, and the web, but I am unable to determine the dotpitch (DPI?). <br />
<br />
Are there any utilities that will probe the LCD to determine that stuff? <br />

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.

Linux

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).
