See the man page for XVFB:

Quote:
In addition to the normal server options described in the Xserver(1) manual page, Xvfb accepts the following command line
switches:
−screen screennum WxHxD

This option creates screen screennum and sets its width, height, and depth to W, H, and D respectively. By default, only screen 0 exists and has the dimensions 1280x1024x8.
Get the dimensions of your physical display and set the number of vertical/horizontal pixels accordingly.

I hope this helps.

"DPI" is "Dots [=pixels] Per Inch" and means a sort of resolution. If your display is - for example - 10 inches wide and you set a resolution of 900 pixels, then you get 90 pixels per inch.

I hope this helps.
