You're right, Liberman. And this 9696 setting is causing trouble all over the
place btw - from crashes to fonts that change when you access them (click, in
menus, mail etc) - bad one.

I am no longer seeing this problem on 062311.  Can anyone else confirm?

Comment 5

[R.K.Aa.]

yes, seems fixed on Linux 2000-062321 - it defaults to only 96 again.

upping severity on this one - last time it caused a little flood of related
bugreports.

The problem seems to be more generic. I think it's an ender lite thing. If you
go to http://www.google.com and enter some search terms, press 'google search',
enter some different terms, press 'google search', and repeat this a few times
you will see what I mean. If you then go back by using the back button, you
should see the search field is messed up, frequently words are repeated.

This appears fixed in Linux build 2000070508. Seems to have been related to bug
42178.

i fail to see the connection to a forms-control bug - nothing is mentioned there
about screen-resolution?
Anyways - setting WFM again - later builds have correct resolution.
