TeamViewer not scaling in Ubuntu and/or 4k Screens

ack0329

indeed this works as a workaround

for others to clarify the steps in Ubuntu or Variants, here are the 2-4 steps:

 

Open up this file "/usr/bin/teamviewer" with a text editor (gedit in my case,) from a terminal

                  $ sudo gedit /usr/bin/teamviewer

Add this line to the beginning save, and exit, and restart TeamViewer

               'export QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.33'                    (1.33 or larger 2 works well)

 

Always trying to help, Mark

p.s. in 1080p it now works without any workaround with the new Awesome NVidia 415 Driver for Linux

For the record,

It has magically started scaling ... using 4K with Ubuntu!

Thanks ... and please tell me what you did!

 

So to be clear ... until today TV was unusable with 4K as it did not scale and fonts appeared minute (tiny).

I had a workaround that stopped working for the past couple of months or more,

 

Either way thanks (Why it took so long is beyond me!) but THANKS!

but now it is working!
