Bug ID: 400080 Summary: There seems to be a huge regression in multi-monitor support in 14.1 Product: KScreen Version: 5.14.1 Platform: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: common Assignee: se...@kde.org Reporter: k...@the-systems-commonwealth.net Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY I have a laptop with a hdmi screen to the left and a vga to the right of it. This never varies, the laptop is basically glued to the desk. I have other laptops for travelling with. The issues are that: Every time I log in, compositing is off and needs to be manually set. Every time I log in, the screens have been shuffled from where I like them. HDMI (Primary) -> Laptop -> VGA to VGA ->Laptop (Primary) -> HDMI. and need to manually dragged back. I remember these happening a few versions ago but can't be precise I'm afraid. The following issue is brand new. There is also a popup offering to do various things with monitors but it seems to expect only one external monitor and no matter which option I choose, nothing happens. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Plug two external monitors into laptop 2. Log in 3. Arrange screens as desired and apply 4. Logout 5. Log back in OBSERVED RESULT Screens shuffled. Primary monitor moved to laptop screen and compositing may be disabled. EXPECTED RESULT Screens are where they were left. Compositing state as it was left and primary monitor as it was left.
