            Bug ID: 360926
           Summary: Waking up notebook after undocking from a
                    multi-monitor setup creates an impossible kscreen
                    configuration
           Product: KScreen
           Version: 5.5.5
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: common
          Assignee: se...@kde.org
          Reporter: art...@gmail.com

I have a 3-monitor setup (2 external monitors through a dock, one of them set
as primary display + laptop's own display). After suspending to RAM in such a
set up and waking up with no dock attached I am faced with a black screen and
the mouse confined to moving along the vertical axis at x=0.

I had a hunch that this is about kscreen, took a backup of
~/.local/share/kscreen and wiped it. Killed X11. Logged in. Same thing -- black
screen and the mouse confined to moving along the vertical axis at x=0.

I checked the new kscreen config and it was exactly the same as the
laptop-monitor-only 1-monitor config kscreen created after waking up (see
attachment). Of interest is that it is exactly the same as the laptop monitor
part of the 3-screen multi-monitor config I suspended with and it has the
following config:
{
  "enabled": true,
  ...
  "pos": {
    "x": 3840,
    "y": 0
  },
  "primary": false
}

That doesn't look like a very healthy config for a 1-monitor set-up.

So, I wiped ~/.config, ~/.local/share, rebooted and started with a brand new
Plasma config, where kscreen actually creates a usable config with the
following:
{
  "enabled": true,
  ...
  "pos": {
    "x": 0,
    "y": 0
  },
  "primary": true
}



Reproducible: Sometimes




NB. Somewhat similar to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=359542 , but the
screen does turn on.
