But doing this in the inverse direction, by first setting the scaling and then changing the main monitor, it fails and the screens go black. Oddly enough, it also fails to revert this setting and I have to hard- reboot (though I could probably try switching ttys, etc). This is with focal and focal-proposed enabled. I also have the proprietary 440 nvidia drivers enabled, and I'm using default gnome with x11.
