supportInformation
I'm sorry, but multi-head setups are not really supported. This is the first time in years that a bug regarding multi head is reported. What you use in addition is multi screen on a multi head system. I wasn't even aware that this is possible. It's definitely not a feature we support. As X11 is feature frozen and this is a rather strong corner case setup I fear this will never get worked on. In my field (computer vision and machine learning) it's not so unusual to have two or more GPU on a computer, and of course multiple screens. I have no problems with other desktop environments (I have tried gnome and cinnamon). Actually the root of the problem is Nvidia, because the only way to control the fan speed on linux on a graphic card is to have an X server running on that graphic card. With that configuration I was trying to start an x-server to the second graphic only with the end to control it's fan speed, while using the first graphic card for the output on the screen. The Destkop Envirnoment should just ignore the second x-server-screen, but kde plasma seems to have some problem and goes crazy. Thank you for reporting this issue in KDE software.
