Description Christian González 2012-01-02 23:14:42 UTC

Version: 3.94.0 (using Devel)
OS: Linux

When disconnecting a monitor, after the systemsettings kcm apply the main monitor has the wrong resolution.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
I have two monitors, one of my laptop (1366x768, automatic detected) and an external one (1680x1050, automatic detected).
When I connect the external monitor, KDE recognizes this and asks to configure it.
I do this with the interface, and I see the plasma desktop widened to both screens. So far ok.

When I plug it out again, KDE asks me to configure it again (sometimes on the wrong screen, the disconnected one, see Bug #287975)
Now there is only my first screen (the built in) enabled - (the absolute position is NOT corrected to 0/0 which would make sense, but stays on 1680/400, as set before with the two monitors - this now makes no sense any more!) I click on "Apply" - and have it saved.

Actual Results:
What I see now is the desktop with the right physical (1366x768) resolution, but the virtual size of 3046x1268 - I know this because when I make a KScreenshot the picture has exact this size (attached). So the virtual screen still has the size of exactly the two desktops and gets not the size of the remaining desktop.
The lower and right parts are physically cut off - so I even don't have my plasma panel on my screen any more.

Expected Results:
I want my built-in monitor displaying the desktop in the right physical and virtual resolution again.
After disconnecting a monitor, the "viewport" (is it called this way?) - I mean the virtual desktop - MUST be corrected the the visible monitor again.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 3.0.0-14-generic
Compiler: gcc

as you can see here the right side is completely black and not used - I can't see it on my physical screen. And I don't see the Plasma panel.

Reported in Fedora too on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=811302 during KDE Plasma Workspaces Test Day.

Dupe of #273212 I think.

Thank you for spotting the duplicate. 

Could you please use the word 'bug' in front of the bug number instead of a #, else the link is not made automatically: bug 273212 instead of #273212

@Myriam - apologies, I use Redmine/Github at work all day, habits... I'll try to remember for the future.
