Welcome.
Please tell us your GPU (e.g. Nvidia xxx), too, and what you exactly tried to do to "scale the resolution" and what your goal is.
Do you use a laptop or desktop, an internal or external monitor?
Do you use Wayland or X11 (enter echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE in the Konsole terminal emulator OR open -> Applications Menu -> System -> Info Centre to find out)?Last edited by Schwarzer Kater; Jul 31, 2023, 05:58 AM.Debian KDE & LXQt • Kubuntu & Lubuntu • openSUSE KDE • Windows • macOS X

get rid of Snap script (20.04 +) • reinstall Snap for release-upgrade script (20.04 +)
install traditional Firefox script (22.04 +) • install traditional Thunderbird script (24.04)

oh, my bad... well, i use intel integrated graphics (Intel UHD Graphics (JSL) ) and the problem occurs with my internal monitor of the laptop, i use the X11 desktop, and what i want is that the 4:3 aspect is stretched to the whole screen and that the black borders are not visible, I have tried reinstalling and formatting everything, I have downloaded multiple applications for resolutions in the store and tried to reinstall the intel drivers but with the latter I could not do it.

What exactly are you trying to do? Use 1024x768 and get rid of the borders? (that would be desktop scaling) or use the correct resolution for your monitor? Which we don't know because you've given very little useful information.
How about opening Konsole, typing "xrandr" and screen shot the results?

The plus sign (+) indicates the preferred mode.
The asterisk (*) indicates the current mode.
It appears you have a screen that supports 1366x768 but is set at 1280x720. This probably explains the black bars.
The question now is why aren't you using the native resolution? LED Monitors aren't very good at scaling or running a mode that's not the default. You're almost always going to get some amount of blurriness. If the fonts are too small, increase the font size instead of messing with the monitor settings.
