https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=360430 Jimmy Berrychanged: What|Removed |Added CC||ji...@boombatower.com --- Comment #6 from Jimmy Berry --- Not sure if related although it seems likely, but my 3 screen config seems to be lost each login (since qt 5.6) and is a joke to setup again with kscreen5. Video demonstration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GWC_SrE9cco. Let me know if I should file separate bug. My 3 screens are correct at login manager, but on login the left and right (identical screens) are cloned and center screen is disabled. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=360430 --- Comment #5 from Bernd Steinhauser--- As I don't see this every time, I guess there is a race going on. To me, it looks like kscreen tries to look for a config, when some daemon or backend is sometimes not available to retrieve the config (e.g. kded or kdeinit). Then it tries a best guess at the screen config and writes that config to disk (at that time, the backend/daemon/whatever would be available, because it happens a bit later). Since I'm not good at understanding c++ and since I don't know kscreen in detail, that's just speculation. However, I remember from times where loading a config was successful, that there are lines in the log telling you that it found a config and tries to apply that. When the config gets rewritten, I can't find such lines in the log, but there aren't logs about something failing either. Other than the lines about some xrandr, but iirc that's normal (since there are multiple ones). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=360430 --- Comment #4 from lutz.wr...@gmail.com --- With icrond's logging I was hoping to see a pattern when this occurs, but I couldn't find anything. It seems more or less random. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=360430 --- Comment #3 from Bernd Steinhauser--- It's easier to remove write access to the file, but that still does not solve the problem at all. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

The offset of the laptop screen should be (1920, 2160) but is sometimes reset to (0,0). I've seen this with all plasma 5.x.y versions that I've used so far. As a workaround I use incrond to run a script that restores the kscreen configuration file whenever it changes. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
