KDE Ending Out August With Various Fixes & Other Enhancements

Unfortunately you have to, if you need per-monitor scaling. Reality is that Xorg development is dead.

You don't, but Wayland is a lot easier. Anyway I use xorg because I need to work and to solve this with nvidia drivers because I'm lazy but it is doable with xrandr scale and fb.

I have a feeling 144Hz is a calmed down Griffin/GhostOfFunkS/Mentalist.

Hmm, I think you're right. Definitely has the same 'mannerisms'. One to keep an eye on for the eventual system killfile.

The xrandr per-monitor scaling thing just doesn't work, so it's not an option. Unfortunately Wayland is mandatory if you need that.

Maybe not for you, here it works perfectly, was bored and decided to fix SDDM, it pass through NVIDIA settings and show a ugly resolution jump, just did:

/etc/sddm.conf

...
[X11]
DisplayCommand=/usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup

/usr/share/sddm/scripts/Xsetup

#!/usr/bin/sh
# Xsetup - run as root before the login dialog appears
xrandr --output HDMI-0 --scale 1x1 --pos 3840x0 --output HDMI-1 --scale 1.5x1.5 --fb 3840x1620 --pos 0x330

I'm glad that it works for you, but I really think it's driver specific. I tried lots of time with this on Intel Broadwell with no luck, I even opened a bug report but didn't help either.

It is a pity... I just wanted to point it is not a complete impossibility, it is a good idea to try. I wish you good look with Wayland maturation.
