            Bug ID: 360113
           Summary: Configured and Applied Screen Config do not match
           Product: KScreen
           Version: 5.5.95
          Platform: Exherbo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: kcm
          Assignee: se...@kde.org
          Reporter: li...@bernd-steinhauser.de

I'm on 5.5.95, but I've seen this since 5.4 at least.

As kscreen does not (always) respect the saved config, I have to reconfigure my
screens quite often and then this happens:
1. Move all screens (DP-0, HDMI-0 and DVI-0) to the correct position, select
primary output (DVI-0)
2. Ensure that the screen positions are (0,0), (1920,0) and (3840,0) as shown
by the position info of kscreen
3. Apply the config
4. Notice that the screens are not aligned vertically (i.e. by trying to move
the mouse cursor along the top)
5. Go back to the kcm, notice that the vertical positions of the screen are now
different, i.e. the middle screen is at (1920,40), but doesn't have to be that
position exactly, the offset could be different.
6. Move the middle screen to the correct position
7. Apply the config
8. Notice that the screen's are still not aligned properly
9. Go back to the kcm, notice that (e.g.) the left screen is now misaligned
10. Align that
Etc.

If I'm lucky, I can get it set up within 2 tries, but if I'm unlucky, I'll
spend 5min trying to align the screens.

I really wonder how hard can it be? :(

I'm not sure what additional info to provide.

Reproducible: Always
