Sorry, I haven't tested this yet.

But, I have tested wayland and it fixed mentioned problem. There was no need to
redo my layout, I just changed X11 to Wayland in login settings. The only thing
I have to change was the screen DPI in fonts settings. In X11 screen DPI was
forced the following way:

```
$ cat /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/90-dpi.sh 
#!/bin/sh

xrandr --dpi 157
```

The only app that still renders with incorrect DPI is Firefox and some other
GTK applications. I still have no clue how to fix this.

There is also a bug that have been fixed with Wayland. In X11 if I lock screen
with laptop attached to dockstation with two screens then detach it, laptop
screen stands black and shows only mouse pointer and nothing makes X11 to start
using it. The only way is to hit ctrl+alt+backspace to stop X11. That's why I
used the following workaround: unlock screen first and only after detach from
dockstation.

But migration to Wayland introduced another bug. Everything is OK with plasma
panels. But screen wallpaper and desktop type preferences are totally broken.
With laptop detached from screens I have slideshow settings with "default
desktop" type. With laptop attached I see default wallpaper on both screens.
Desktop settings of the left screen (which is secondary) allows me to modify
wallpaper, but they show desktop type as "show folder", but I don't see
~/Desktop/ folder contents. Desktop settings of the right screen (which is
primary) doesn't allow me to modify neither wallpaper nor desktop type. When I
hit "Apply" nothing happens and if I open settings window again it shows old
settings.

Anyway, everything above is about other bugs/issues. Here I can confirm that
migration to Wayland solved the topic-starting problem. n...@kde.org, can you
please change the status accordingly or you want me to test with left screen as
primary on X11?
