Bug ID: 371643
Summary: Kscreen display configuration is lost on reboot
Product: KScreen
Version: 5.8.2
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: common
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
(Unsure if this is considered a duplicate of Bug #361144 as the state it resets
to after a reboot is slightly different. If it is a duplicate please mark it as
so.)
Upon rebooting, display configuration of dual monitors (extended display, not
clone) is lost when set through kscreen. While both displays are still enabled
after a reboot orientation, choice of primary display and secondary display
wallpaper are incorrect and must be reconfigured. Reconfiguring will cause
settings to persist until system is rebooted at which point the settings are
reverted again.
System specifications:
KDE Plasma Version: 5.8.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.27.0
QT Version: 5.7.0
OS: Arch Linux x86_64
GPU: Intel® HD Graphics 2000 (modesetting driver in use)
Display server: Xorg
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure dual screen layout with kscreen (either through kcm or "Displays"
module)
2. Reboot system (either through Plasma menu or "sudo reboot")
Actual Results:
1. Display configuration is lost and must be reconfigured
Expected Results:
1. Display configuration persists
My monitors are connected to the motherboard's onboard VGA and DVI ports, not
though a PCI/PCI-E graphics card. Could this possibly confuse kscreen when it
detects the displays?
I am unable to test on Wayland at the present time as there are issues which
leave Plasma unusable on my particular setup.
Attempted fixes:
- Deleting all files in ~/.local/share/kscreen, rebooting and reconfiguring
- Configuring through seperate "Display" window as opposed to kcm module
