--- Comment #8 from OlafLostViking <olaf.the.lost.vik...@gmail.com> ---
=== Setup ===

The following steps have been tried on these installations within a libvirt/KVM
VM:
- Neon (user): Qt 5.7.0, KWin/Plasma 5.7.0, kf5 5.24, QXL (Virtio doesn't even
reach X11/SDDM)
- Archlinux (kf5-only): Qt 5.7.0, KWin/Plasma 5.7.0, kf5 5.23, QXL as well as
Virtio
- Manjaro (KDE): Qt 5.7.0, KWin/Plasma 5.6.5, kf5 5.23, QXL
- openSUSE (Tumbleweed): Qt 5.6.1, KWin/Plasma 5.6.4, kf5 5.23, QXL as well as
Virtio

All were updated to use the repository packages of today (2016-07-11) and
rebooted while having 1280x720 set as desktop resolution.


=== Booting ===

They boot into a default sized (1024x768) SDDM, which doesn't react on VM
window changes (unlike f.ex. GDM that I tested before in another VM, see
comment #2). After logging in, Plasma/KSplash adjusts to the resolution of the
last session. (At least most of the times... I finally gave up for now finding
a pattern - I guess using xrandr vs kscreen makes a difference... But that's
probably for another bug report one day ;-) )


=== QDbus ===

Output of the qdbus command after login:

```[olaflostviking@valhalla ~]$ qdbus org.kde.KWin /KWin supportInformation |
grep -A7 Screens
```Screens
```=======
```Multi-Head: no
```Active screen follows mouse:  yes
```Number of Screens: 1
```
```Screen 0:
```---------
```Name: Virtual-1       ### index depends on distribution
```Geometry: 0,0,1280x720
```Refresh Rate: 60     ### exact frequency differs on distributions

Changing the size of the outer VM window does _not_ alter the output of the
qdbus query (`diff`ed the whole output). Using kscreen to change the resolution
works as mentioned before. The output of the qdbus query changes at the
"Geometry" entry only.


=== xrandr ===

With `xrandr --output Virtual-1 --mode 1280x720` I can switch to the desired
resolution, too. This is correctly shown by a following `xrandr` (including *
and +) as well as in the `qbus...` query on KWin (just to make it clear: the
outer window size of the VM is correctly reflected by `xrandr` only but not the
`qdbus` output).


Thanks for having a look!
