ditto here, krandr defaults have never worked for me. Every log in to KDE the display settings have to be reset to their optimal settings. Setup: 1x LCD (LVDS-1) @ 1280x800 1x LCD (HDMI-1) @ 1680x1050 $ cat ~/.kde/share/config/krandrrc [Display] ApplyOnStartup=true StartupCommands=xrandr --output LVDS-1 --pos 0x0 --mode 1280x800 --refresh 59.9913\nxrandr --output HDMI-1 --pos 1280x0 --mode 1680x1050 --refresh 59.9543\nxrandr --noprimary [Screen_0] OutputsUnified=false UnifiedRect=0,0,1024,768 UnifiedRotation=1 [Screen_0_Output_HDMI-1] Active=true Rect=1280,0,1680,1050 RefreshRate=60.0038414001465 Rotation=1 [Screen_0_Output_LVDS-1] Active=true Rect=0,0,1280,800 RefreshRate=59.9201316833496 Rotation=1 On a new startup, the screens are both set to 1024x768 even when "Save as Default > Save as Default" is chosen with optimal settings. There seem to be a lot of bugs regarding the ability for Krandr to restore from defaults, Given the config seems to be correct something else may be interfering. Thanks James see also: bug #292937 - exactly the same symptoms. This is still happening in KDE 4.8.0, kubuntu packages, nouveau driver all up to date for that version. Interestingly if I run the StartupCommands manually on the shell (bash) they work just fine. $ xrandr --output LVDS-1 --pos 0x0 --mode 1280x800 --refresh 59.9913\nxrandr --output HDMI-1 --pos 1280x0 --mode 1680x1050 --refresh 59.9543\nxrandr --output HDMI-1 --primary $ On reboot both screens are 1024x768. The defaults are certainly saved according to the RC file but never applied. Out of interest I'm wondering how a bug gets attention here ? This one has 21 votes. This is also affecting me also. This is VERY ANNOYING FYI https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=293006#c1 is still happening in KDE 4.8.3 Confirmed by other users. If it helps, I've got a new screen and a new install of KDE 4.8.4 from Kubuntu repos, the bug still happens.
In the Screen Resize and Rotate control panel app I saved a default of:
LVDS-1: 1280x800
VGA-1: 2048x1152
On startup VGA-1 is a low res (possibly 1024x768, not sure, certainly not 2048) and after KDE login, the screen has to be set up again with the required dimensions.
