    88Scaling is indeed possible both ways: up and down. For instance it would be able to fit a 1920x1080 desktop onto a 1280x1024 connected screen by downscaling in the driver and graphics card hardware, though the aspect then of course is deviating.

     10Note though that normally you probably won't encounter the scale-down situation. Behaviour is a bit unpredictable since app_server isn't able to control multiple screens, and the net situation you get is depending on which screen's EDID gets relayed to app_server. That should in my opinion always be the lowest common spec screen, but on the intel_extreme driver such logic is not (yet) in the driver. For instance the nvidia driver does have this logic, as well as aspect logic.
