I used krandr as well, but it has a bunch of bugs in 4.6 that got fixed for 4.7, so I went one level down and used xrandr directly. Even if krandr worked, I would not know how to set up a default configuration that's automatically applied on boot, or should it do that automatically? I used to get a message from KDE saying a new screen was attached and whether I wanted to open the KCM module, but since the KCM module for display management has even more bugs than krandr, I disabled it and now I do not know how to get it back. Maybe doing so and upgrading to KDE 4.7 will indeed solve my issues (if the Plasma bugs I ran into got fixed as well).
On my old installation I used the AMD catalyst, it's horrible - changing the multi-monitor setup requires a reboot, and it meddles with the Xorg.conf in bad ways. Not to mention a strange screen overlap issue (one column of pixels from the left screen appearing on the right one). Really, what I got running now is already much better than anything I was able to do with that tool :D Kind regards, Ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
