</span>Which discussion actually? It is not clear to me what are you asking<br>
here. You asked a question it got answered.<br>
<br>
The other mails are basically<br>
<br>
1) Don't take control away from the user --- no one is doing that<br>
2) Give us a non integer scaling factor --- you have been told why it<br>
is not feasible<br>
3) Multimonitor --- as already stated this requires wayland and will<br>
be hopefully done for F21<br>
