You can read some details on
http://blog.3v1n0.net/informatica/linux/gnome-fractional-and-multi-monitor-scaling-hackfest-the-report

The work might land in 3.26 but that's neither done nor we have that
version in Ubuntu yet.

Marco might have some more details to share, Ccing him

Wayland is available as an option under the login screen session
selector, you can try it today (if you are not using the nvidia binary
drivers)

Help verifying SRUs

2017-07-17 Thread Robert Ancell
Hi all,

I've got some SRUs that need verifying, if you have a few minutes could you
have a look and check if these work for you? If you can confirm these work
then change the tag on the bug from verification-needed-xenial to
verification-done-xenial (replace xenial with zesty when testing on 17.04).
