Output of the command "journalctl -f" after switching to the internal screen.
The display configuration periodically reloads itself for no apparent reason. The display is in a sleep mode and constantly connected with a DisplayPort. |

How is the screen connected? HDMI, DisplayPort, or something else? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #1) > How is the screen connected? HDMI, DisplayPort, or something else? The monitor is connected via DisplayPort. Still happening on Manjaro with Plasma 5.27.10. I think the issue is that the monitor cannot enter the sleep mode. A few related bug reports: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=413618 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=422455 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=426609 Can be marked as duplicate if necessary. Sorry for the late answer! Created attachment 169998 [details]

Still present in Plasma 6.0.5
Unfortunately this doesn't sound like something we can fix; some displays just trigger hotplug events while in standby mode, so they get processed and this happens :/ In the Wayland session, this should at least not cause any stutter though. If it does, please make a bug report for KWin about it! Ok, thanks for the info. |
Created attachment 158118 [details] Output of the command "journalctl -f" after switching to the internal screen. After switching from the external screen to the internal laptop screen, the display configuration is reloaded each ~10 seconds. Each time the configuration is reloaded: * The image on the internal screen stutters. * The icon of the applet "Display Configuration" blinks. * The notification "A new output has been added. Settings have been reloaded." is shown if the "Display Configuration" settings are opened. When the external screen is turned OFF and ON again by the power button, the reloading does not happen anymore. Each reloading of the display configuration is followed by the identical journalctl messages that start and end with "Emitting configChanged()" (as in the 1st attachment). STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Connect an external screen to the laptop. 2. Switch to the external screen in the Display Configuration applet. 3. Switch to the internal screen in the Display Configuration applet. OBSERVED RESULT The display configuration is periodically reloaded. EXPECTED RESULT The display configuration is not reloaded.
