Good catch. The strange DPI comes from the graphic card combined with two
tripple head 2 go. So my
card thinks it's connected to 2 monitors with 3840x1024.

I fixed the resolution to 80 DPI:

% grep ServerArgsLocal /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc
ServerArgsLocal=-background none -nolisten tcp -dpi 80
% 

After a CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE everything is fine. No enlarged cursors anymore
(neither with KDE nor Gnome programms).

Thanks. (I close this bug with RESOLVED/FIXED.)
