Screenshot of the control module

The new control module is showing me empty resolution lists for my laptop's display ("LVDS") and the external monitor; see the attached screenshot. Toggling, moving and rotating the screens works fine, and the available resolutions are still visible in the "Size & Orientation" section of System Settings.

Perhaps it is worth noting here that I am using the fglrx drivers; they still depend on xorg.conf.

Looks almost like if the widget was not visible. Could you test whether the list appears when you  change Plasma theme (System Settings -> Workspace Appearance -> Desktop Theme) to "Air" or "Oxygen"?

It does not appear with any theme. I also noticed that the empty list widget has the same dimensions for both screens, despite the external screen admitting more modes than the laptop LCD.

The does not resize by design, it contains scrollable listviews. Does kscreen-console report any resolutions at the outputs?

kscreen-console output

Yes. To be sure, I booted without the proprietary drivers today (and with the latest git commits), and current kscreen-console output is enclosed in the attachment. Both screens have their supported modes listed and are enabled at the proper resolutions now.

Can you attach the kscreen-console output with the propietary drivers? none of the kscreen developers use or have an ati card :/

Thanks !

Much better choice of cards :p, and sure I can.

Can you still reproduce this bug with latest master ?
Can you see the dialog without composite activated?
Can you check if this still happens with other driver?

Thanks !

I found that the culprit is the Widget Style in Settings > Application Appearance, I think I overlooked this setting earlier. I had "Oxygen Transparent" selected (unofficial style); setting it back to Oxygen got the resolutions list working for me with the latest master (although it would probably have worked earlier), also with fglrx loaded.

It now appears that commit d6ef709016f1e367e359a363e8c086e25ebf4809 also fixes this bug for the Oxygen Transparent widget style. Cheers!
