Unfortunately I can't tell what in shm_access is failing exactly because
gdb skips straight from shm.c:314 back to the caller. So that suggests
this code path, but I can't verify it:
static int
shm_access(ClientPtr client, SHMPERM_TYPE * perm, int readonly)
{
int uid, gid;
mode_t mask;
int uidset = 0, gidset = 0;
LocalClientCredRec *lcc;
if (GetLocalClientCreds(client, &lcc) != -1) { // FALSE
...
}
/* Otherwise, check everyone else */
mask = S_IROTH;
if (!readonly) {
mask |= S_IWOTH;
}
return (SHMPERM_MODE(perm) & mask) == mask ? 0 : -1;
}
So Xorg _should_ be returning an error, and it is. The problem seems to
be that the client (python3 gtk_ui process) has a real uid=0 and
effective uid=999. So that allows it to connect to Xorg (normally Xorg
rejects root clients), but doesn't allow Xorg to check the client shm
permissions. So Xorg rejects the client's attempt at XShmAttach.
How any of this relates to scale=200% and why it works at 100%, I'm not
sure. We might need to review comment #15 in more detail.

Bug description:
The Ubuntu installer crashes on hiDPI machines (QHD/UHD etc). Although
it was working some weeks/months ago, so this is a recent regression.
