Version: (using KDE 4.3.2) Installed from: Fedora RPMs On laptops, the Intel driver reports the VGA output (and others) before the LVDS. KDE then seems to pick the first output as its "primary monitor". I don't like this because it puts my panel in the external display. Randr-1.3 has a new option "primary". This seems not to be supported? Would be nice. If I now unplug my external monitor, I get an unusable empty screen. I think randr-1.3 should report (un)plug-events, too? Does KDE listen to these? The first time I activated my external monitor with krandrtray it showed the same as the internal screen, and multi-monitor-setup was disabled in systemsettings. had to call xrandr from console. After that systemsettings (restarted) displayed multimonitor setup, where I cannot change anything layout-specific. Also my first runs of xrandr resulted in corrupted desktop, where moving some windows made pixel-garbage. Proposal: let me be able to change in kde-display-settings a) the primary display (with main panel,..) b) the layout setup ( for example by drag/drop the screens in the layout-preview), I only achieved this by xrandr in console.

No response; assuming it was fixed since then.
