display monitor scale going back to 200% after wakeup

Post by hsystyle »

Hello,

I'm using lenovo x1 carbon gen 6.
- intel graphic card
- linuxmint 21

The symptop is
after the laptop goes to sleep with the lid close and wakes up, display monitor scale goes to back to 200%.
If the computer goes to sleep via power button or clicking sleep or power off, the issue is not there.
I usually set the display monitor scale to 125%

can someone please help?

Regards,
Justin

I notice there is a bug report on this issue Fractional scaling resets itself upon suspend #10879 which indicates, "Fractional scaling sometimes resets to 200% instead of 125%, inside the Cinnamon desktop, when suspending."

You might want to post your experience there so the development team knows this issue is affecting multiple people.
