Bug ID: 463619
Summary: [Regression] Unable to change desktop resolution
beyond natively supported resolutions on Wayland
Classification: Plasma
Product: KScreen
Version: 5.26.4
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: common
Assignee: kscreen-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: arazec...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
Previously, I was able to go into display settings and set my Wayland desktop
to whatever resolution I wanted it to be. However, I am now locked into 4k(the
only natively supported resolution) with a message stating:
"3840x2160 (16:9) is the only supported resolution supported by this display
Using unsupported resolutions was possible in the Plasma X11 session, but they
were never guaranteed to work, and are not available in this Plasma Wayland
session."
This is on a Manjaro distribution, and this has recurred as of two stable
branch system updates ago I believe. Before that, I was able to change my
desktop resolution freely on Wayland.
I have even tried a trick I saw on another forum with a extra boot option,
"video=eDP-1:2560x1440@60" with no avail. Even if that did work, I shouldn't
have to be doing that seeing as I didn't need to in the past. Regardless, it
didn't work.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to display settings
2. Try to change resolution
3. Observe that the resolution can't be changed
OBSERVED RESULT
A message stating I'm locked to natively supported resolutions.
EXPECTED RESULT
A drop down menu of resolutions similar to X11.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This has occurred in the past with Wayland as it was still missing a lot of
utility, but the functionality was added in several months back. It has now
regressed, and is missing once again.
