Bug ID: 437054
Summary: Primary display goes dark if second is upside down
Product: KScreen
Version: 5.21.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: common
Assignee: kscreen-bugs-n...@kde.org

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I have an unusual dual monitor setup, using one standard HP 1080p monitor
(monitor 1, primary), and one Wacom Cintiq Companion Hybrid in left-handed
orientation (monitor 2, secondary). Basically my cintiq monitor is upside down
and I have to rotate it 180 degrees in settings to be usable.
When I do this, my HP monitor goes black and will not display anything but the
mouse cursor. I have discovered a workaround by telling the HP monitor to
display upside down, then to switch it back to right-side up orientation. I do
not understand how or why this worked.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. have 2 monitors
2. set monitor 2 Orientation to Upside Down
OBSERVED RESULT
Screen 2 will display properly, but Screen 1 will go black, displaying only the
cursor. Now on every reboot I must flip monitor 1's orientation Upside Down,
then back again to display properly.
EXPECTED RESULT
Both monitors should display without issue.
