Caldera does this right: they look at the screen size, at what
resolution was asked and they automatically set the XF86Config to use
the best fonts so the HOWTO about 100 dpi fonts is a one liner:
"switch to Caldera".  Of course if I have time or somebody looks at
Xconfigurator this HOWTO could be a little longer: "switch to Caldera
or to Independence".
