Error message in Display Configuration
SUMMARY
(Using KDE Plasma 6.6 Beta 2 from Arch Linux [kde-unstable])
I have two monitors arranged horizontal in System Settings. When I try to
disable the left one in Display Configuration, it refused to do so with an
error message:
> Couldn’t apply display configuration: Position of output %s is negative, that
> is not supported(I18N_EXCESS_ARGUMENTS_SUPPLIED)
Disabling the right side monitor works without problem. Whether the left or
right monitor is the Primary does not seem to matter, both will trigger the
issue. Using Meta+P to enable only one monitor (can be any of the two) also
works.
Probably related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=514732, but here the
error message contains a literal '%s' instead of some monitor or connector
name.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have two monitors arranged in horizontal, e.g. pressing Meta+P to select
"Extend to right of built-in screen";
2. Go to System Settings, Display Configuration, select the left monitor
(Built-in Screen in my case);
3. Deselect Enabled, then Apply.
OBSERVED RESULT
The error message appears. Both monitors remain enabled, but the "Enabled"
checkbox is now deselected. The left monitor disappears from the "Edit
Arrangement" preview.
EXPECTED RESULT
I should be able to disable the left monitor.
