Ok, that sounds more like another issue. This seems to be another effect of a problem in qt5.4 regarding QScreen returning null in unexpected places. And is currently known to reproducibly fail on machines with one display off, for instance, closing the lid in a laptop that has an external monitor connected. This is supposedly fixed in qt5.5, currently in experimental. I'm downgrading the severity as the problem went from every machine to only one.

It did break breeze in the past if partially installed (some qt5.5 packages were installing themselves via experimental upgrade even if core qt5.5 was not there Konsole outpu). -- eric

In other words: you need to either recompile the necessary stuff yourself or wait until Qt 5.5 arrives to unstable. It also helps if you complain to upstream for using private Qt stuff ;) -- porque no respeta el orden natural en el que se leen las cosas >¿por qué top-posting es tan molesto? >>top-posting >>>¿cuál es la peor molestia en los emails de respuesta?

Is it a possibility to get those packages compiled against Qt 5.5 in experimental? signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

I now have half a dozen boxes that works correctly and this is the only one that is a docked laptop using an external monitor with internal LVDS display off. So far as I had multiple temporary breakage on various boxes due to partial/incompatible packages versions uploads, I did not consider it was a specific case but now only this docked laptop remains broken. --eric _ Ce message et ses pieces jointes peuvent contenir des informations confidentielles ou privilegiees et ne doivent donc pas etre diffuses, exploites ou copies sans autorisation.
