Scaling and multiple monitors

[Ovidiu-Florin Bogdan]

I kept playing around with the settings, trying to scale things to a similar size on all screens and....

Scaling from System Settings, has 3 results:
* Huge text small icons
* tiny text huge icons
* huge text, huge icons

I can see no way of reseting the whole display and scaling set-up.

Please help.
