https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343661 --- Comment #61 from Walter Nicholls --- I haven't seen this problem reoccur for me in the last month. Maybe a software patch has changed behaviour: Kernel now 4.2.0-35-generic plasma-workspace at 4:5.4.2-0ubuntu1.1 nvidia-352

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343661 --- Comment #56 from Walter Nicholls --- I still haven't tracked down a trigger, but I did wonder about these: - I've only ever seen this when external monitor is plugged in. But that is 90% of the work day.. - or maybe, I have

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343661 --- Comment #44 from Walter Nicholls --- It might take a while but I'll experiment. I'll wait for repaint issue to reoccur first and see what Shlft-Alt-F12 does, then of course will have to wait again, possibly for several weeks, to

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343661 --- Comment #49 from Walter Nicholls --- Sage advice, Thomas. This is odd. Did not survive a reboot. It runs the script but doesn't set the setting. This might be getting a bit off topic, but looks like it is time to further debug
