Re: Display setting problem with 4k monitor

If someone has a similar problem, I suggest to read this page:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/HiDPI

It helps me a lot, but I'm still having problem with the monitors. Zooming/panning make the display blurry and (as suggested in the web page) I should try to adjust the "sharpness" parameter, but I do not find it in Fedora.

I am still wondering why fedora does not provide a complete "display setting" in order to manage the new monitors.

Best,

Massimo

Hi all,

I've bought a new laptop (Dell xps 13.3) and the monitor resolution is 3200x1800. Now the problem is that I cannot use this laptop with my external monitor which I use as an extended monitor. The external monitor could reach 1280x1024. So when I try to move a window from the laptop monitor to the external monitor, it appears too big.

I haven't this problem with my previous dell xps and what it is more important, if I run an Ubuntu live distro, I can see various setting to manage displays such as "windows scaling" where I can adjust the windows sizes.

So,

- why fedora does not provide the same setting as Ubuntu? Ubuntu proposes many different resolutions and specific window scaling for the two monitors.

- is there something that I can do in fedora?

I really do no want switch to Ubuntu after more than 20 years with fedora.

After my signature the xrandr output.

Thanks,

Massimo
