I have two 11.3 845G/GL rev01 systems, one from Dell/Foxconn, the other from
Intel. On the latter, I just did startx/end (KDE4) session more than 20 times
trying (with panning) to get vertical and horizontal DPI to match (instead of
121X120).

On the other, repeated startx/killall startkde3 seems to be no problem
either, with no ~/.xinitrc, stock /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc and this xorg.conf:
