That’s correct, the “Scaled --> More Space” simply makes the problem less 
noticeable. I already replied in http://sourceforge.
net/p/darktable/mailman/message/32736110/ including some screenshots.
So yes, the problem is not solved.

Also, in another reply http://sourceforge.
net/p/darktable/mailman/message/32736110/ I mentioned that at 100% image zoom a 
checkerboard pattern appears. This is actually a more severe issue than the 
previous which makes really darktable not usable on my machine.

The link to the screenshots might be expired so I re-uploaded the pictures 
here http://we.tl/Vyxhv0enOd
It would be nice if you could confirm the same behaviour (especially 
concerning picture 6).

As a comparison I build from git-master with X11 backend and tested in full 
screen mode at 2880x1440 resolution: perfect picture quality can be achieved 
(however, I get crashes when importing many pictures with the git version...).
It is a bit unpractical to use it this way (entering full screen mode, calling 
xrandr to change resolution, and then use darktable) but this might still be a 
reasonable alternative to a Lightroom license.

Best regards, Mauro
