Bug ID: 372511
Summary: While using triple monitors, display settings lost on
reboot.
Product: kwin
Version: 5.8.3
Platform: Slackware Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: s...@schu.net
Target Milestone: ---
I will try to be very verbose as this issue has persisted ever since I upgraded
to KDE 5.
ISSUE: When I login the monitor resolution is incorrect (I run a slightly
lower res on my large monitor), and the order of the monitors is wrong. I fix
it, then on the next reboot everything is reset again, so every time I restart
X windows I need to completely reconfigure my display settings.
Also, since the display settings are reset the task manager gets confused. I
normally only show tasks on the monitor that task appears on, using "show only
tasks from current screen", but the task manager will show tasks on other
screens unless I remove the task manager widget from the settings bar and add a
new one.
OS: Slackware 14.2 with packages below. This also happened on slackware 14.1
as well as earlier versions of kde 5.
PACKAGES:
I'm using these kde packages: http://alien.slackbook.org/ktown/ so you can see
exactly how they are compiled here:
http://alien.slackbook.org/ktown/source/5/kde/
HARDWARE CONFIG:
I have three monitors plugged into an AMD Radeon HD 7850, one on display port
and two on DVI.
TESTING:
I'm going to remove the display port monitor and do some testing with dual head
and post back. As I recall, that worked correctly.
