Title:
Display scale and layout not remembered when X11 Fractional Scaling is
enabled
Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Status in mutter source package in Focal:
In Progress
Bug description:
After upgrading to 19.04, I enabled the experimental 'x11-randr-
fractional-scaling' setting. If I set scaling to 125, 150, or 200%,
the setting is remembered and used the next time I log in. If I set
scaling to 100%, however, the next time I log in the scaling switches
back to 200% automatically. I only want to use fractional scaling for
external monitors.
Background: This is on a Dell XPS 9360 with a 1920x1080 ~168 DPI
screen. Pretty standard configuration. I have my DisplaySize set to
294x165 in Xorg.conf, Xft.dpi=168, GTK font scaling factor 1.0.
I have been unable to find an appropriate combination of settings
where 168 DPI is respected for accurate font rendering, while at the
same time not scaling up the rest of the UI to unusable proportions.
Fractional scaling seems to be the only way to adjust some Gnome UI
elements.
