> fractional scaling does not render the desktop at a higher resolution than your screen
Xorg fractional scaling DOES render the desktop internally at higher resolution than the monitor, and then downscales it to the physical monitor. That's how you get a "fraction". For example: Monitor = 3840x2160 Scale = 150% Render resolution = 5120x2880 Transform matrix scale factor = 1.333 Final visible resolution = 5120x2800 / 1.333 = 3840x2160 You can confirm this by looking at the details in 'xrandr --verbose'. > If one could simply choose different integer scaling for different monitors that would solve 90% of people's problems. Yes you can already but only in Wayland sessions. Xorg sessions are limited by Xorg itself not treating each monitor as a separate framebuffer. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1902436 Title: Mouse slow in Xorg fractional scaling To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1902436/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
