SUMMARY
The program window display of some programs (VLC at video playback, Kontact,
LibreOffice) gets mashed up when small old monitor is configured left (aside
new higher dpi monitor). (Settings-Display and monitor). When the old small
monitor is configured right aside the new one, everything works fine.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Settings - Display and monitor
2. Move the box representing the old monitor to the left
3. Start Kontact, VLC player (video playback) or LibreOffice
--> program window display will be mashed up. :(
4. Move the box representing the old monitor to the right (no restart required)
5. Start Kontact, VLC player or LibreOffice again
--> everything works fine :)
See screenshots.
Workaround:
a) Libre Office: remove libreoffice-qt5 and libreoffice-gtk2 package, install
libreoffice-gtk3 package instead (?!)
b) VLC: use custom skin ("avs 95 beta")
