In "Display -> Size & Orientation" monitors are always visualized to be mirrored (above each others) and in normal orientation even though one would be rotated. Using randr to rotate and set them side by side doesn't visualize correctly.

Version: (using KDE 4.3.2) Installed from: Kubuntu 9.10 beta graphics system: KMS + UXA intel X3100 graphics Multiple Monitors are not detected by default. After issuing: xrandr --output LVDS1 --right-of DVI1 multiple monitors are detected and GUI displays options. That's very annoying if the KDE built in tools for monitor/display configuration are not sufficient to switch between single and multi monitors setups. In addition to System Settings -> Computer Administration -> Display -> Multiple Monitor also KRandR has to be extended to allow drag and drop configuration of monitor and display deployment.
I'm convinced this bug is a duplicate of this older report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=180437 Someone please mark this one as a dup and CC: users should vote for the other one.
Same with beta1 kde 4.4
From bug 223603: --- Description of problem: I have a Dell Dimension 8300 that runs both Mandriva Linux 2010.0 and Windows XP Home Edition, and it has two monitors. Graphics card: ATI RV280(Radeon 9200 PRO) Monitor 1: BenQ T2210HD (DVI) Monitor 2: Flatron W2042S (VGA) In Windows the "Dual monitor" functions, so there should be no hardware problem. In Linux however, I only get the same picture on both monitors. The message in: System settings - Display - Multiple monitors is: "This module is only for configuring systems with a single desktop spread across multiple monitors. You do not appear to have this configuration."
As of 4.9 the configuration module "Multiple Monitor" does no longer exists which renders this bug as invalid.
