It came with Ubuntu 12.04 installed. I updated to 14.04 without problem. I removed the obsolete/local packages inherited from the Dell repositories. Everything seems to work fine (except for the bug reported here). I have the menu and title bar scale in control center -> display set to 1.25. It works fine most of the time but some times, when I start a session text size is much bigger than normal. Using gsettings I see that: xps:~$ gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Interface text-scale-factor 1.953125 xps:~$ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 2.44140625 xps:~$ gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor uint32 1 It seems that text-scaling-factor = "menu and title bar scale" * text- scale-factor. I do not see a way to change com.canonical.Unity.Interface->text- scale-factor from the interface. Manually setting text-scale-factor to 1 solves the problem inmediatry except from some text misalignment in the dash that is corrected aftere a session restart: xps:~$ gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Interface text-scale-factor 1 xps:~$ gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Interface text-scale-factor 1.0 I use it as a workaround. I report the bug in unity-control-center becouse it is there where the relevant desktop option can be acceced but the problem is most probably related to unity session start.
