Hi there,

Good you seem to be arrived to some solution : )

Anyway here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg#Display_size_and_DPIis
a doc from Arch Linux (I love their doc ^^) about that subject and you
can try changing dpi now using xrandr :
xrandr --dpi 96
xrandr --output HDMI-0 --dpi 100

cheers
