I did a clean install of a Debian 12 + KDE Plasma.
I have an older monitor, and its size is being incorrectly picked up:
This is an old SyncMaster is 23", around 509mm x 286mm and the fact that it's physically different causes KDE to incorrectly scale the login screen and almost everything behind it.
I wrote this autostart script and it fixed most of the issues:
the dpi setting is being set correctly, but the --fbmm just doesn't work:
How do I force xrandr to take my value for the physical screen size?
Some specs, if needed:
