man XF86Config
DisplaySize width height
This optional entry gives the width and height, in millimetres,
of the picture area of the monitor. If given this is used to
calculate the horizontal and vertical pitch (DPI) of the screen.
Under your "Monitor" section in /etc/X11/XF86Config
Add the entry:
DisplaySize XX XX
Replace XX and XX with the width and height in millimeters of the
picture area of your monitor. You can either measure it or look in the
manual or docs for the monitor on the web.
