Bug ID: 405179 Summary: KDE Settings in 5.13.5 do not seem to allow customization of multiple distplays Product: systemsettings Version: 5.13.5 Platform: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: major Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: rob.wilk...@ieee.org Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY KDE Settings refuses to allow me to configure 2 displays, heck, it won't let me set up any displays. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. By default, on launch of new KDE session, 2 displays are working as expected, though not lined up (positionally) the way I would prefer (i.e. similar to physical set-up). 2. I go into Display settings, make a change, and the initial result is that both screens are mirroring (not what i intended). 3. I then try to make ANY change (enable/disable either monitor, link or unlink -i.e. mirror or not) and the result is now always the following error message: "Sorry, your configuration could not be applied." "" "Common reasons are that the overall screen size is too big, or you enabled more displays than supported by your GPU" 4. I will comment that I started with the default driver and received this message, then went to the NVidia website and retrieved 'official' drivers, but that did not change the error. I will not also that I am setting up 2 displays (4k and 2k/1080p), but the display adapter has 4 ports (so you would think it supports it, display memory permitting). Also, please keep in mind that when i initially logged into KDE Plasma for the first time on this account (and yes, I realize an option may be to wipe out config and/or create a new account), there were 2 functional separate displays, that just happened to be not tweaked the way i like. OBSERVED RESULT Error message as described, inability to separate from screen mirroring, distorted display on larger screen EXPECTED RESULT The ability to customize display options for multiple displays.
