Description Geraldo Simião 2023-10-17 14:31:23 UTC 
Start a VM with Fedora-KDE-Live-x86_64-39-20231017.n.0.
You will find the screen seems zoomed in, check the Displays setting you will find Scale is set to 125%.
The problem will be solved after you change 125% to 100%.

Reproducible: Always

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Geraldo Simião 2023-10-17 14:32:28 UTC 
It seems similar to what happened to workstation https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2238905
Comment 2 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2023-10-17 14:34:26 UTC 
Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 39-final by Fedora user geraldosimiao using the blocker tracking app because:

 This is similar to the FE granted to workstation ( https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/1331 )

KDE spin first boot after install on VM

Just like on live-session, after install the scal still on 125% at first boot.

Screenshot from the display configuration

First boot after install, showing 125% scale at system settings.
Comment 5 Neal Gompa 2023-10-17 14:47:54 UTC 
Per Nate and Nicolas Fella, this is intentional. Plasma detects based on hardware and resolution what default scaling factor to use.
