When I change the screen resolution of my laptop from 1366x768 to 1024x768 via [Displays ...], the entire screen is still filled, stretching the picture uglyly. How can I have a pixel wise 1-to-1 mapping such that the original proportions are preserved? This I need particularly when I want to ...

@BeastOfCaerbannog started a bounty on a question. Let's see

Anwar

I've read the 2nd answer

Anwar

Feb 10, 2021 14:23

Maybe it's because I'm using an external monitor?

Anwar

Feb 10, 2021 14:23

@BeastOfCaerbannog First one didn't work for me

I've rollbacked this answer since the latest edit was just incorporating others' answer and was significantly different than the others' answer. askubuntu.com/posts/47218/revisions

@dessert I was expecting an answer. I don't know why Ubuntu is giving half-baked things these days!

Anwar

Jan 27, 2020 15:54

I think this is a bug in Ubuntu askubuntu.com/q/1206023/61218 What do you people think?

Anwar

Jan 27, 2020 15:28

I'm not sure if I'd be able to do so. Let's see

Anwar

Jan 27, 2020 15:27

silence where?

Anwar

Jan 27, 2020 15:27

I'll try to spend at least a few minutes from now on.

Anwar

Jan 27, 2020 15:26

That's even greater! I've the board visited today

Anwar

Jan 27, 2020 15:23

@Zanna Hi :)

@MathCubes I haven't heard of mergerfs. I've learned something about unionfs and aufs. As far as I know, aufs is preferred solution in Ubuntu. unionfs is outdated. But nowadays, overlayfs is the one that's being used everywhere and included in the kernel AFAIK

Anwar

@Fabby I know it

Anwar

Jul 4, 2019 12:03

yes. like live. but I want my configured system as the base.

The objective is, I want to use ramdisk for speed which can be discarded without problem

Anwar

Jul 4, 2019 10:37

Here is a guide wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM but looks outdated

Anwar

Jul 4, 2019 10:37

@terdon Maybe I didn't express the precisely . ^ Running on Ram was what I was looking for

Anwar

Jul 4, 2019 10:36

@WinEunuuchs2Unix It wasn't what I looking for. Thought good suggestion :)

Anwar

Jul 4, 2019 10:36

@Rinzwind I saw timeshift. It's system restore. What I want is running the OS on RAM (or part of the filesystem) and gone when rebooted.

Anwar

Jul 3, 2019 09:27

Like Live CD but not from a CD or ISO image

Anwar

Jul 3, 2019 09:27

any software solution?

Anwar

Jul 3, 2019 07:23

as if it's frozen. restored when rebooted

Anwar

Jul 3, 2019 07:18

I want my system to revert back upon reboot. basically like a live cd but with my current state. How to do this? I found [systemback ](launchpad.net/~nemh/+archive/ubuntu/systemback) but it creates live cd for that.
