Description Kenneth Ingham 2011-05-31 23:06:13 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

If I set up my laptop to use two screens, all works fine.  However, I cannot change back to one screen.  Booting without the second monitor gives me a screen with no panel.  If I start an application, it does not show up.  I can add plasma widgets to the screen, and the window list shows whatever applications I start.  Notifications do show up.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Configure dual-screen configuration.  Unplug one screen and restart.

Actual Results:  
See the details above.

Expected Results:  
If I only have one screen, everything should appear on it.

If I remove ~/.kde4, things work, but this is more of a nuclear option that loses all other settings.
