To enable fractional scaling after installation run:

  • gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['x11-randr-fractional-scaling']"

To disable fractional scaling run:

  • gsettings reset org.gnome.mutter experimental-features

For proper multi-monitor fractional scaling install also gnome-control-center-x11-scaling.

Steam and EGS scale, but in reverse is this somehow solvable ? https://imgur.com/a/Q2FnNYA

Thanks for the help (in the EnOs forum).

To summarize (in case it's useful for anyone in the future):

The issue was caused by a "Logical monitors not adjacent" error, which appears to be a gnome-shell bug (struggles with monitors.xml config validation when fractional scaling is on).

So I turned off fraction scaling, then ran yay (which successfully upgraded the package, hurrah!), and then turned fraction scaling back on. Done :)

Yes; use the thread you opened on the EnOS forum and respond to dalto's question.

Thanks Jonathon. Appreciate the help.

Looks like it fails even if I git clone the AUR and makepkg (i.e. without yay). See terminal output: https://pastebin.com/dPG3R22C

Any thoughts?

Looks like tests are failing because you're using yay. Open a thread on the EnOS forum. ;)

The upgrade to 40.5 fails to compile (at least for me).

Help? :)
