Thanks. For this bug, please:
1. Set a fractional scale value and close Settings. 2. Take a copy of ~/.config/monitors.xml and name it 'before.xml'. 3. Reboot and log in. Make sure the bug occurs. 4. Take a copy of ~/.config/monitors.xml and name it 'after.xml'. 4. Run this command: journalctl -b0 > journal.txt 5. Attach all three resulting files here. ** Description changed: Related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1825593, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1852860, but those report the issues are fixed. They also do not mention the VMware specific issues.
