Description Alexander Fieroch 2022-11-07 11:19:14 UTC
I have a multi-monitor setup with two monitors at resolution 3840x2160 and one at 1920x1200 rotated 90° clockwise.
The workstation is running 24/7 but the monitor goes to sleep and poweroff if not used. After turning on the monitors the old configuration is lost. I have to open the display configuration and to enable monitors other than the first one again because they stay off in configuration after switching them on. All windows stay on the first monitor and I need to move every window again to its belonging monitor.

KDE Frameworks Version: 5.99.0
