Generally we don't support custom xrandr --scale settings in Ubuntu because it conflicts with the fractional scaling patch, so bugs are expected if you modify the internals like that. Still, if you would like to discuss any such bug then please report it by running:

However this does not occur on the internal screen. xrandr: xrandr program version 1.5.1 Server reports RandR version 1.6 host: Static hostname: lws84.imws.tuwien.ac.at Icon name: computer-laptop Chassis: laptop Operating System: Fedora 34 (Workstation Edition) CPE OS Name: cpe:/o:fedoraproject:fedora:34 Kernel: Linux 5.13.4-200.fc34.x86_64 Architecture: x86-64 Hardware Vendor: Lenovo Hardware Model: ThinkPad P15 Gen 1 Screen: https://www.lg.com/de/monitore/lg-27UK670-B To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1937916/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
