MythTV 0.21+ no longer require any particular DPI setting (though, 
usually, people will be happiest with 100x100DPI).  The wiki needs 
updating, but I haven't had the chance.  If you'd like to help update 
it:  http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/327031#327031

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/326414#326414 (and 
the rest of the thread).  This one 
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/326717#326717 was 
interesting, but I haven't verified it (nor checked the code to see if 
it helps to indicate a proper fix).
