Description Ilya Bizyaev 2021-01-07 08:46:42 UTC

SUMMARY
When I change the screen refresh rate preference, it gets applied, but only until the next time the user logs into the session.

This old computer monitor needs to be "adjusted" on refresh rate changes, so the setting being not persistent is very obvious to the user as part of the image output gets cropped.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Apply a different screen refresh rate (e.g. 75 Hz) from System Settings
2. Log out, log back in
3. The refresh rate, both real and in System Settings, is back to the default 60 Hz

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Comment 1 Ilya Bizyaev 2021-01-10 07:59:56 UTC

"Solved" this by removing KScreen configuration and then re-configuring:

$ rm -rf ~/.local/share/kscreen/

I have a backup of the faulty configuration directory, if that can be of use.

The above workaround only works for 1 login, afterwards the refresh rate is wrong again. Reopening.

Thank you for the bug report. Unfortunately we were not able to get to it yet. Can we ask you to please check if this is still an issue with Plasma 5.25 or 5.26?

If it is, please change the status to CONFIRMED when replying. If not, or if you can't because you no longer use this setup, you can change the status to RESOLVED WORKSFORME. Thanks a lot!
