Public bug reported: I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 with a NVIDIA MX250. Firstly, nvidia-prime was not working. Even when selecting nvidia only, it was using Intel HD Graphics. [IMAGE1]
I've forced the use of NVIDIA as the primary GPU by creating /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia-drm-outputclass.conf with: Option "PrimaryGPU" "yes" (seen here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA_Optimus). [IMAGE2] This works, now nvidia-settings show all options (before was showing only prime options, and nothing more - even when selecting NVIDIA Only). But now, fractional scalling crops half of the screen. The funny thing is that when I try to printscreen, on the picture it looks fine, but in reality is not. I had to make a photo with my cellphone. As you can see, elements don't fit the screen (Note firefox title bar, for example).[IMAGE3] ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 20.04 Package: gnome-shell 3.36.1-5ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.4.0-26.30-generic 5.4.30 Uname: Linux 5.4.0-26-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu27 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: skip CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Mon Apr 27 02:49:29 2020 DisplayManager: gdm3 InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-04-27 (0 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Release amd64 (20200423) RelatedPackageVersions: mutter-common 3.36.1-3ubuntu3 SourcePackage: gnome-shell UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug focal -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1875285 Title: Ubuntu 20.04 Fractional scalling “cuting” elements Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 with a NVIDIA MX250.
