Public bug reported: Ubuntu gnome 17.04, gnome 3.24. On high resolution display, 3200x1800, login screen is too tiny to read. GDM login screen doesn't reflect changes to org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor or text-scaling- factor.
Eg: xhost +SI:localuser:gdm sudo su gdm -s /bin/bash gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor 2 gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface text-scaling-factor 2.0 no effect. Creating a gdm user under /etc/dconf and running dconf update has no effect either. Scaling-factor seems to scale the mouse cursor, but nothing else. ** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Ubuntu gnome 17.04, gnome 3.24.
