I have a MBPR 13 running Arch Linux with only xorg and xmonad. However im not able to scale Chrome for Hdpi instead everything is super tiny.



What I have tried so far is the reccomendations on Arch Wiki but id does not work:



google-chrome-stable --force-device-scale-factor=12


What do I need to do for Chrome to work on my Hdpi screen?






arch-linux chrome

          Try using a factor 2 instead of 12:



          chromium --force-device-scale-factor=2


          And since you run xmonad you might also try calculating and setting your DPI in .Xresources like shown here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HiDPI#X_Resources



          (wiki states that Chromium is using dpi from X server https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HiDPI#X_Server)

                    How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

                    Image
                    Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
