Bug ID: 407058
Summary: KDE Plasma5 can't change resolution in VM after last
update
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.15.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: bighusk...@outlook.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Since the last update (5.15 KDE update) the desktop comes up with 800x600. If
you use the KDE settings to change the resolution, it does resize for a second
and then falls back. You can choose "View-Resize Virtual Machine", but you
can't use the KDE settings panel. On each new reboot you will get back to
800x600. Tested it on two different computer and VM's and same issue. Here
tried on VMware Fusion 11.x and 10.x. Was working fine before that. Experienced
on Arch Linux, current KDE Neon Distro, Kubuntu, Suse Linux. Als tried with
brand new installations.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install KDE based distro with Plasma version 5.15.x in VMware Fusion or
Workstation., including open-vm tools
2. Go to KDE Display settings. It will be at 800x600. Choose another resolution
and click on Apply. For a second or two the screen expands and then goes back
to 800x600.
3. If you select "View"->"Resize Virtual Machine" and choose a resolution, the
VM switches properly to the new resolution and stays there.
4. At this point, you can try again to switch resolution with the KDE Settings
and you will experience the same behavior. It will switch to the new resolution
for a second and then go back to the previous one.
This was working fine with Plasma versions before 5.15
On a side note. SDDM is not affected by this and correctly starts at the
earlier defined resolution. Upon login the desktop then goes back to 800x600
EXPECTED RESULT
Desktop should retain whichever resolution is chosen in the Settings.
