Hi guys, I just turned on my laptop with bluefin gts after updating a couple of days ago and noticed that fractional scaling options are gone from Gnome. Before I was using 1.25 scaling, is there a way to get it back?
I think it could be fixed now, so try to do system update. But if it’s not, run this command:
gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['scale-monitor-framebuffer']"
and restart

### Describe the bug
On bluefin-nvidia@40.20241027.0, the fractional scaling do… esn't seem to be available and the toggle to enable it is not displayed either
### What did you expect to happen?
A working fractional scaling
Here is how it looked on the previous version

Tried also reverting https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/gdk-message-error-71-protocol-error-dispatching-to-wayland-display/127927/42
By `rm -rf ~/.config/environment.d/` (`environment.d` was a directory)
Maybe something broke there ?
If I remember correctly, the `environment.d` directory didn't exist before doing the custom patch from https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/gdk-message-error-71-protocol-error-dispatching-to-wayland-display/127927/32
Rollbacking for now
Will be available in the next update
For a quick fix in the meantime :
gsettings set org.gnome.mutter experimental-features "['scale-monitor-framebuffer']"
(also suggested earlier by @kociol21 )
