Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. It sounds like some part of the system has crashed. To
help us find the cause of the crash please follow these steps:
1. Look in /var/crash for crash files and if found run:
ubuntu-bug YOURFILE.crash
Then tell us the ID of the newly-created bug.
2. If step 1 failed then look at https://errors.ubuntu.com/user/ID where
ID is the content of file /var/lib/whoopsie/whoopsie-id on the machine.
Do you find any links to recent problems on that page? If so then please
send the links to us.
3. If step 2 also failed then apply the workaround from bug 994921,
reboot, reproduce the crash, and retry step 1.
Please take care to avoid attaching .crash files to bugs as we are
unable to process them as file attachments. It would also be a security
risk for yourself.

Title:
Setting fractional scaling beyond 125% causes segfault
Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Setting fractional scaling between 125% and 175% yields improper
behavior. When set to 125%, display will be scaled to 200%. Attempting
to use either 150% or 175% scaling causes gnome-control-center to
segfault. Selecting 200% scaling exhibits proper behavior.
Steps to reproduce the issue:
1. Enable the Fractional Scaling toggle under Displays in
gnome-control-center.
2a. Select 125% beside Scale, and press "Apply" at the top right. Display
should scale to 200% and the selected scale should also change to 200%.
2b. Select either 150% or 175% beside Scale and press "Apply" at the top
right. Monitor may possibly turn off for a few seconds, and
gnome-control-center will have segfaulted with scaling remaining at 100% when
it turns back on.
Release: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
Package version: 1:3.36.1-1ubuntu5
Expected behavior: Display scaling set properly to fractional values
Exhibited behavior: Improper scaling with scale set to 125% and segmentation
faults with 150% and 175% scale
