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.
