Hi Avi! Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

[Bug 784761] Re: "identify outputs" doesn't identify outputs
I'd expected the monitor on DVI-0 to be labelled as the monitor on DVI-0, and the one on DVI-1 to be labelled as being on DVI-1 so I could tell the config thingy which one should be to the left of the other. I don't think I've ever felt particular need to identify which monitor or output is named as which except for those times when both are behaving in exactly the same way and I'd like them to not be - when one is configured in a position relative to another, I can identify which is which by moving the mouse around, for example. I seem to recall Gnome's monitor identification thing displaying a different label on each monitor - I've not got it to hand at the minute, but I'd have filed a bug there, too, had I noticed :) - is there some fundamental difference in how KDE and Gnome do multi displays? Either way, it might be what's expected from a technical standpoint (in that, from some part of X's point of view they *are* the same), but I suspect the average user (such as myself) would expect it to, well, identify the outputs. It just struck me as a spectacularly useless button when I clicked on it and each output appeared to claim to be both... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/784761 Title: "identify outputs" doesn't identify outputs -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Isn't that what's expected, as both monitors show the same image? If it's a cloned display, both need to show the same thing at all times, and are incapable of doing anything else. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/784761 Title: "identify outputs" doesn't identify outputs -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

It's worth noting that the system had identified the monitors correctly - the resolution dropdown boxes, for example, were populated with sane values. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/784761 Title: "identify outputs" doesn't identify outputs -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
