This "monitor" is detected despite it does not exist. I discovered that because some apps I started did not appear on screen, and the mouse cursor somehow "vanished" behind the right screen edge, until I found out that they were placed on that second screen - I could "drag" the windows per Alt+LeftClick blindly from somewhere in the right to my actual monitor. a screnshot of systemsettings is attached. Then I attached a *real* second monitor to my laptop - systemsettings detects it correctly and expands the screen - but now tells me that I have *three* monitors... This is really a regression to 13.10, and as the monitor is detected *and* enabled by default, it is not really good to work with, as windows are "vanishing" somwehere. I can reproduce this behaviour with a Kubuntu live ISO on my system. So it is NOT my misconfiguration ;-) I before had Kubuntu 13.10 with KDE 4.12.5, running well without this bug. I am using a laptop with optimus graphics: intel/nvidia card, corresponding lspci lines: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) 01:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108M [GeForce GT 540M] (rev a1) What else (log files etc) do you need from me to help resolve this bug?
