Description Malte S. Stretz 2013-05-06 07:39:55 UTC

I tried to configure my two screens next to each other.  Each time I press Apply, the green screen preview thingys just jump back and nothing happens.

I then tried it on the console and got a 

xrandr: screen cannot be larger than 1920x1920 (desired size 3520x1200)


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
See above.
Actual Results:  
See above.

Expected Results:  
I should at least have gotten the error message stated above, even better would be a hint on how to fix this.

I see the same behavior with Debian v7.0 (Wheezy).  xrandr version:

rp@ns1000:~$ xrandr --version
xrandr program version       1.3.5
Server reports RandR version 1.3

Thank you for your bug report or feature request.

Unfortunately, we did not have a maintainer for the "krandr" components, which are used to manage displays and monitors in the KDE Workspaces.

The "krandr" components has been superseded by "KScreen" in newer releases of the KDE Workspaces. It is compatible with all versions since 4.11, and is also used with Plasma 5. Please check with your distribution how to update to KScreen.

If this issue or feature request is still applicable to KScreen version 1.0.5 or newer, please add a comment. We will then reassign this ticket to KScreen developers.

If you are already using KScreen to manage displays or monitors, and found a different bug or need a specific feature, please create a new ticket for "KScreen" product in this bugzilla using this link: https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=KScreen
