Version: (using Devel) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources Since not all monitors are detected correctly it might be necessary to pick a mode manually. To do this the user has to do the following on each start of KDE: cvt 1280 1024 # 1280x1024 59.89 Hz (CVT 1.31M4) hsync: 63.67 kHz; pclk: 109.00 MHz Modeline "1280x1024_60.00" 109.00 1280 1368 1496 1712 1024 1027 1034 1063 -hsync +vsync to get the modeline xrandr --newmode <modeline> xrandr --addmode <> If this could be handled via the GUI it would save a lot of trouble to all those that are not familiar with xrandr or the konsole. Another issue is that "Virtual" in xorg.conf might not be big enough which kephal should warn the user about, yet I guess that is another bug.
the missing of a Gui program like sax2 and the difficulty to correct the problem on an easy way asks for a workable solution
Thank you for your bug report or feature request. Unfortunately, we did not have a maintainer for the "krandr" components, which are used to manage displays and monitors in the KDE Workspaces. The "krandr" components has been superseded by "KScreen" in newer releases of the KDE Workspaces. It is compatible with all versions since 4.11, and is also used with Plasma 5. Please check with your distribution how to update to KScreen. If this issue or feature request is still applicable to KScreen version 1.0.5 or newer, please add a comment. We will then reassign this ticket to KScreen developers. If you are already using KScreen to manage displays or monitors, and found a different bug or need a specific feature, please create a new ticket for "KScreen" product in this bugzilla using this link: https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=KScreen (This is an automatic message from the KDE Bug Triaging Team)
