My Gnome control centre is patched to support fractional scaling. I assume that my problem here is because the gnome-control-center-x11-scaling package hasn’t been updated for Gnome 42 yet and is, therefore, missing the new options (And is probably why I also can’t change my Background as I assume they’ve changed how that works and “Tweaks” is pending an update too)?
