Bug ID: 445316
Summary: On Wayland containments are randomly moved between
screens on login, often resulting in disappearing
panel
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.23.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Multi-screen support
Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
Reporter: bribbers+kdebugzi...@disroot.org
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
On (practically) every login in a Wayland session, the containments are moved
around between screens. This means the panel moves and wallpapers switch
around. Often it means the panel appears on an unconnected screen connector,
forcing me to recreate the panel from scratch on basically every login. When I
then login to a X11 session, all panels show on top of each other and I can
remove them one by one till I only have my original left. Then logging in to a
Wayland session again, if I'm lucky it shows the panel but most often it's gone
again.
This has only started happening from Plasma 5.22.90 and onwards (currently
experiencing this on Plasma 5.23.3), but because of this bug has been the
buggiest release so far for me.
My setup is 2 120hz 1080p screens, one of which has FreeSync enabled, a 60hz
1080p TV set to mirror my left 120hz 1080p screen, and a VR headset (Valve
Index).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a multi-screen setup
2. Login to a Wayland session
OBSERVED RESULT
Containments get moved around meaning moved panel and wallpapers, and if you're
unlucky your containment moved to a not-connected connector meaning you have to
recreate your panel from scratch.
EXPECTED RESULT
Containments not to move around and remember what screen they're supposed to be
displayed on
