Description Bob K 2009-09-13 14:48:31 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.1)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I have set the xft dpi with the command stolen from startkde:

#!/bin/bash
xrdb -quiet -merge -nocpp <<EOF
Xft.dpi: $dpi
EOF

I will attach a picture, where the $dpi was 140.

How to reproduce:
- Execute:
#!/bin/bash
xrdb -quiet -merge -nocpp <<EOF
Xft.dpi: 140
EOF

- Execute: kdesu kate
- Tell a wrong password to kdesudo, then enter

The result will be what i have attached.

I'm getting a slight variation of this glitch as well with the 89 dpi of my TFT.
Obviously the same problem, so the bug should be marked "confirmed".
