[KScreen] [Bug 457235] Laptop screen gets resized to after hot-plugging external monitor

No, I can move the cursor around freely on the entire real estate of both screens. Just plugged in the docking station with dolphin already open on the right half of the laptop screen; the dolphin window held its position after docking (see screenshot attached). It seems that only the plasma desktop gets messed up. Funny thing: After hot-unplugging the docking station with the laptop screen still garbled up, I was left with only the default wallpaper--firstly monochrome only, then colour fading in--and nothing else. I.e. no dolphin window, no control bar, no mouse pointer, nothing. Luckily I could still access a yakuake window. However, restarting plasma didn't work, so all I could do was to "sudo reboot". -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=457235 Syiad changed: What|Removed |Added Resolution|WAITINGFORINFO |--- Status|NEEDSINFO |REPORTED --- Comment #5 from Syiad --- I've added some pictures showing the laptop screen before and after docking, and together with the secondary display on top after docking. Didn't use spectacle, because I was afraid that that might interfere even more with the screens. As you can see, I have a script with an icon on the desktop to restart plasma especially to work around this issue. After a plasma restart, the laptop screen looks as before docking again. The script also copies '~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc' from a back-up copy to ensure the widgets are restored (different bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=427861). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
