Hi,
I'm working on bringing OLPC up-to-date with all the great efforts
with GNOME 3, systemd, etc.
On the OLPC XO laptops we have quite a strange screen - it is small
(152mm x 114mm) but very high resolution (1200x900 i.e. 201 dots per
inch).
Previously, on Fedora 14, we had to adjust the default GNOME font
sizes since they didn't look right on the screen (I think they were
too big). Now I'm looking at applying the same set of customisations
to Fedora 16 since the default fonts are uncomfortably small on our
display.
We currently hard-code the DPI:

But you can work-around the problem by using text-scaling-factor
GSettings, which would then be "201 / 96".
