STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot
2. 
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
On Lenovo Flex3 laptop, Monitor with HDMI to DVI adapter does not work untill an os is up.
This is a "Frankinovo" where the display died and DIY repurposing with external monitor that only has DVI and VGA
inputs. However the laptop shows fine on a monitor that has HDMI built in input. It's fine once an OS is up boot but it is dual boot and the Grub menu does not show up.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

This isn't a KDE problem as no KDE code is run during the times when the monitor is off. You'll want to report this to the Fedora folks or the Kernel folks.
