[Touch-packages] [Bug 1709667] Re: Regression - Loss of hiDPI configuration settings
bug in gnome, not sure which component though but is being worked on ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => gnome-shell (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1709667 Title: Regression - Loss of hiDPI configuration settings Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When upgrading from ubuntu 17.04 to 17.10 (obviously new window manager) ... there is no longer the ability to configure the HiDPI scaling within the window manager.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1709667] Re: Regression - Loss of hiDPI configuration settings
The workaround here is to manually execute ```gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor 2``` and then restart the system to be into a scaled (2x) mode. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1709667 Title: Regression - Loss of hiDPI configuration settings Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When upgrading from ubuntu 17.04 to 17.10 (obviously new window manager) ... there is no longer the ability to configure the HiDPI scaling within the window manager.
