fractional scaling in Fedora 36

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello everyone,
I have installed Fedora 36 on a high-dpi laptop (Del XPS 9550) and Gnome; Im having trouble setting the scaling to 250% (200 is too small and 300 is too big).
I tried "enabling" fractional scaling by doing:  gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['scale-monitor-framebuffer']"
This in fact allowed me to set the scaling to 250%, but then, when trying to open ANY program, the window would appear and disappear instantly. I wasn't even able to set the setting back to normal. I just reinstalled the whole system to get Gnome working again on Wayland (Xorg was working still).
My questions:
1. Is there another way to enable fractional scaling? (Gnome and Wayland)
2. In terms of performance, setting the display resolution to a smaller value (than my monitor default) is the same as using scaling?
3. Does fractional scaling work better in Xorg? how do you enable this in that case?
4. Does fractional scaling on Wayland affect performance compared to integer scaling?
5. Any other suggestions ?
