Sounds great. I was actually meaning to ask about that... :) Let me know if there's anything I can do to help out. > Before I do that, I would like people to test 4.16 packages on rawhide.

Any number I enable > 1 causes the screen resolution to increase more and more (ie, everything is smaller than native, not larger). If I set it to 0.5 or 0.6 or so it's usable... and this kind of makes sense if you think of it wanting to scale a highdpi resolution to a smaller number. It's just backwards of the gnome way (where scaling means how much to scale all the UI/screens up). I'm not sure it's a bug or feature. I guess I can file a bug and see what folks say. Otherwise everything seems to work here so far. :) kevin
