I think I've seen this bug. Try going up to the "cashew" and clicking "Zoom Out". You should see two activities. One contains your applets as you would expect to see on the same screen as your main panel etc. Click the cashew on the one with the applets (aka your icons) that you want on it and click zoom in. It seems that sometimes your activity on the first screen will move to the second screen when you add a screen, and you will get a new activity on the first. Hmm ... What?!? :-) Sorry, any more insights on this? If I understand correctly : you have two working screens with nvidia twinview. The primary one is the external dvi one, the one on which you put your icons. And when not using that external screen, you don't have your icons ? no input from the user, considering fixed because multiscreen management is really improved since 4.0. please reopen if it isn't the case (but test with trunk or soon beta1). sorry for not providing feedback to your last inquiry earlier :-( It still occurs on 4.1.3-1 from Fedora 9. When not having the external monitor attached upon KDe-start, I then get a virtual solution (allows you to pan left/right with the mouse). Setting that to the correct resolution by hand fixes it. Any more debug-output I can grab together for you? ok, np =) great that you're still around. any chance you can grab 4.2 beta and give it a try? It should be much better. CC'ing the kephal maintainer that should have more insight about this than I do. =) "I then get a virtual solution (allows you to pan left/right with the mouse). Setting that to the correct resolution by hand fixes it. " that's an x.org thing, not a plasma thing. and we keep icons and other widgets on whatever screen# they were on. |
