Package: systemsettings
Version: 4:4.8.4-6
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

This:         * What led up to the situation?
and this:   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?

(1) I connect my notebook's external VGA to a projector, and KDE automatically
shows "System Settings / Display and Monitor Settings" so I can configure a
dual monitor.
Everything works fine until I finish the class and

(2)  I disconnect the projector and the same configure windows pops again. I
disable the second output, keeping only the notebook screen.

(3) Now when I click something, the corresponding window do not appear (but it
is there for all effects). When I click something else, the old state of the
screen is updated with delay, showing the old window that was there but
invisible, and not showing the new state I'm currently in.


   * What was the outcome of this action?

The refresh appears "one click" behind the real state of the screen.

For example, to clarify. Suppose I just want to turn off the computer after
disconnecting the projector. (Almost always the case after finishing the
class).

(*) I click "K menu", but the menu does not appear!
(*) Still, I know more or less where the "Leave" button is placed, then I click
in that position. Now the "K menu" appear!
(*) But now, although I'm seeing the "K menu" and not the dialog box in the
center asking if I want to reboot, turn off or just log off, I know I'm in this
last state. So I click more or less in the position of the "turn off computer"
button (I've marked some references using icons on desktop).
(*) I can hear the turn off music playing, and the system shutdown with no more
problems.

Next boot everything works fine until I need to connect and disconnect a
external monitor again.


   * What outcome did you expect instead?

I expect to disconnect the external monitor and the screen still refresh all
windows as soon as something is clicked. Not a "single click delay" after.

I should notice that I had this problem also using squeeze for long time and
never found a bug report about it. Now using Wheezy. For this but is old, maybe
this report is duplicated, and in that case I apologize for not being able to
find a bug reporting this issue. Thanks.
