            Bug ID: 400115
           Summary: KScreen refresh rate settings applies after KWin
                    starts
           Product: KScreen
           Version: 5.14.1
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: common
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
  Target Milestone: ---

I have 75 Hz monitor, only one, but default refresh rate provided by EDID is 60
Hz. If I choose 75 Hz refresh rate in KScreen, apply it and save, then after
reboot and starting clean plasma session I have 75 Hz refresh rate due to 
xrandr but 60 FPS in KWin due to qdbus org.kde.KWin /KWin supportInformation. 
As result, animation is choppy and laggy.
If I run kwin --replace KWin restarts at 75 FPS and everything become smooth.

As a workaround, I need to have file in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ with command
"xrandr --output DisplayPort-0 --mode 0x5a;" that sets monitor to 1080p@75Hz.
Command in file is executed by SDDM on startup before KWin starts so KWin reads
right xrandr options and starts at 75 FPS.

I think, KScreen must set xrandr options on plasma session startup strictly
before KWin starts.
