Hi all, in a live boot of EndeavourOS, the slider for display scaling didn’t do anything. Is this a limitation of live boot (or at least EndeavourOS’s live boot, since I recall it working with Fedora’s live boot)? Like are the drivers required not installed in the live boot, or does EndeavourOS not support this for my particular hardware?

    Do you have an Nvidia GPU? The driver probably isn’t loaded on LiveUSB due to licensing issues and is using the open Nouveau driver which I don’t think handles scaling.

          Intel i7-1360p. Specifically, the Zenbook Flip (UP3404)

          It’s strange, since I’m currently running Fedora and scaling works fine. Live booting Fedora also has scaling work. Like does EndeavourOS require a driver to be installed?

            A LiveUSB is very simple. It’s built to run the basics, so it’s not weird to think something so specific doesn’t behave as you would expect.
