Monitor Setting incorrect for Sony in Zorin 12 Core

Hi,
I was previously on Zorin 9 and as it was a long time I didn't make any change, I decide to move to Zorin 12.1 Core.
Previously with 9 I was using a Sony Bravia KDL 32 without any issue, when I was installing Zoring 12, I didn't get any troubles,using it without any issue until I applied the First update and do a reboot...
Now my Sony Bravia 32'' is recognized as a Sony Bravia 72'', 1600mm x 900 mm, you can imagine the overscaling I got.

I tried several thing with Xrandr,nothing change (yes, even worse), I tried to use Xorg to adapt the dimension, as the resolution is good but there is no Xorg.conf anymore.
I'm not an expert in Ubuntu/Zorin and I'm a bit lost when it was working fine previously and with the generic driver before the first updates.

Can you help me?
Is there any way to change the Monitor size definition (it is read-only via the GUI) in console from 72 to 32"?
Thanks a lot
