In this video I go over how to make the text bigger, and cursor bigger and other settings to accommodate 4k screens in Linux, mainly lubuntu but this should work on other Debian and Ubuntu based systems.

Text font higher

/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/dpi.conf
[SeatDefaults]
xserver-command=X -dpi 192

sudo leafpad ~/.Xresources
Xft.dpi: 192

sudo leafpad ~/.xsessionrc
if [ -f $HOME/.Xresources]; then
xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
fi
xrandr --dpi 192


Cursors bigger!

https://www.opendesktop.org/p/999574/ (large mouse cursors)

Install to /usr/share/icons

Then go to lxqt-config


sudo leafpad ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
gtk-cursor-theme-name=Large Mouse Cursors
gtk-cursor-theme-size=64

sudo leafpad ~/.Xresources
Xcursor.theme: Large Mouse Cursors

sudo leafpad /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme
Name = Large Mouse Cursors
Comment = A set of 64x64 mouse cursors that are actually easy to see
Inherits=Large Mouse Cursors

Run lxqt-config
select appearance and then make changes
Select openbox then make changes

Then go into pcmanfm and change settings.
