This is a reaction to a bug proposal that aspires to become a blocker for Fedora 34 Final (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1942175). Actually, behaviour like that does not violate any criteria, so theoretically there is no way how this could block the release, but we somehow feel (at least I do) that such behaviour is a nasty thing and should not happen on a mature system which I believe Fedora is. > > Your criterion should be limited to hardware that works in single display > configurations. > > I think two displays is a reasonable limitation.

You probably would agree that one external device (in case of a laptop) or two monitors (in case of a desktop) is a reasonable expectation where people need to connect projectors, external monitors, etc. > > If I can install three graphics adapters in a machine, and each supports > four displays, would you require that I can run 12 displays on each > desktop?
