Confirmed.

Very same results here.

Using xf86-video-ati-6.9.0 and xorg-server-1.5.0.

I'm as well defining "DisplaySize" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and they seem to be
accepted at first:
--->snip--->
(**) RADEON(0): Display dimensions: (332, 209) mm
(**) RADEON(0): DPI set to (146, 145)
(II) Loading sub module "fb"
<---snap<---

However soon afterwards they are set to some ridiculous dimensions:
--->snip--->
(II) AIGLX: Loaded and initialized /usr/lib/dri/r300_dri.so
(II) GLX: Initialized DRI GL provider for screen 0
(II) RADEON(0): Setting screen physical size to 508 x 317
(**) Option "Protocol" "auto"
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0"
<---snap<---

Resulting in xdpyinfo giving
--->snip--->
  dimensions:    1920x1200 pixels (508x317 millimeters)
  resolution:    96x96 dots per inch
<---snapy<---

Now I can help with "xrandr --dpi 145" to switch back to my valid, good DPIs.
But this is an action after the full WM has loaded giving unreadable tiny fonts
already on the desktop. KDE applies the font rendering to any newly opened
window, yes. However the text underneath desktop icons as well as the taskbar
are unreadable tiny. :(

It's very annoying.

Anything changed? Can I help?
