So far the framework (DIY edition) is amazing and I’m having basically no problems running Pop OS out of the box.
I’ve changed Settings>Displays>Scale to be 100% (it defaulted to 200% after install) and then used gnome-tweaks to scale the font up to 1.7 - this results in a perfect font/icon size for my vision.
Every time I reboot, though, the display scaling resets to 200%, which combined with the 1.7 font is almost unusable, of course. If I change it back it persists until next reboot.
Any way to make the setting stop changing back? Thanks!
I understand this was solved long ago. However I had to use a different fix, and I’ll post it here in case someone else comes across this problem.
The HiDPi daemon was already off, but I was still having this issue. I looked in my ~/.config/monitors.xml file and saw that the scaling was set to 1.5000023423, despite changing it to 100% in the GUI. I think that my experimenting with fractional scaling caused a bug here.
What I did was delete both the monitors.xml and monitors.xml~ in this directory. Then when I logged out and back in, my GUI changes were reflected in the monitors.xml properly and they persisted after logging out and in again.
