Public bug reported:
Working on fully updated focal fossy
Procedure to make bug happen:
1. open gnome control center and select screen (skærme in danish)
2. click the "fractional scaling" switch
3. select 150% scaling and click the green button at top right
4. Result is a blank screen and the monitor going into a power save
state
A reboot doesn't help. The login screen appears, when I log in the screen goes
blank again and the monitor power save kicks in.
If I select the "unity" environment, the display does work.
If I do this on the command line "gsettings set org.gnome.mutter
experimental-features ['']", I can log in as usual and fractional
scaling has been turned off.
