[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1857383] Re: Fractional scaling applies to both monitors when you only want it on one
I found a workaround for a 40" external - 15" internal 4k monitor setup. D = I HAVE TO use Fractional Scaling but only with 200% on the smaller monitor. This is working fine. If I disable fractional scaling the other external monitor is scaled also!! So there is definitely still a bug in the code. One idea for the cause is the 30Hz I get on the larger monitor?!?

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1857383] Re: Fractional scaling applies to both monitors when you only want it on one
i can observe no fractional scaling on a default installation dell xps5790 even with a single monitor (4k). Connecting a second monitor the scaling is not working separately either. The most obvious effect is that the right side (top bar) goes off screen. I tried scaling with different display resolution to no avail. I eventually started just using a lower display resolution and gave up on fractional scaling. nvidia 450 libmutter-6-0: Installed: 3.36.6-1ubuntu0.20.04.2 xrandr program version 1.5.0 Server reports RandR version 1.6 lspci 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 630 (Mobile) (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) DeviceName: Onboard IGD Subsystem: Dell UHD Graphics 630 (Mobile) Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 176 Memory at eb00 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] Memory at 8000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] I/O ports at 4000 [size=64] Expansion ROM at 000c [virtual] [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: Kernel driver in use: i915 Kernel modules: i915 I found the prime-select toggle and set it to intel... same issue ** Attachment added: "xrandr --verbose #during broken scaling" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1857383/+attachment/5431932/+files/xrandr.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1857383 Title: Fractional scaling applies to both monitors when you only want it on one Status in Mutter: Invalid Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I have installed Ubuntu 20.04 about 2-3 weeks ago (for the single motive that has fractional scalling) and when activating fractional scalling worked fine, in the meantime i reinstalled again Ubuntu 20.04 (laptop warranty issue) on same hardware but using the latest Ubuntu 20.04 version and now when i activate fractional scalling it does not work anymore.
