Hello,

Plasma-shell have problems with my multimonitor setup:

Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 2704 x 1280, maximum 16384 x 16384
DVI-I-0 disconnected primary (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DVI-I-1 connected 1680x1050+1024+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 474mm x 296mm
   1680x1050      59.9*+   60.0  
   1280x1024      75.0     60.0  
   1280x960       60.0  
   1152x864       75.0  
   1024x768       75.0     70.1     60.0  
   800x600        75.0     72.2     60.3     56.2  
   640x480        75.0     72.8     59.9  
DP-0 connected 1024x1280+0+0 left (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 338mm x 270mm
   1280x1024      60.0*+   75.0  
   1280x960       60.0  
   1152x864       75.0  
   1024x768       75.0     70.1     60.0  
   800x600        75.0     72.2     60.3     56.2  
   640x480        75.0     72.8     59.9  
DP-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

plasmoid taskmanager shows tasks only from primary screen (not current)
Also, its task preview is above the normal position.

Background image does not fill all the background. Panel positions are ok.

I'm using opensuse OBS packages, that are built frequently.

second screenshot after plasma crashed and restarted

As kf5 still does not have randr configuration (kscreen?), I used xrandr commands after it was up:
xrandr --output DP-0 --rotate left; xrandr --output DP-0 --left-of DVI-I-1

That resulted in the first attachement

This second screenshot is the result after plasma restarted (and screens where already configured). Notice that the task preview is still misplaced.
Comment 2 David Edmundson 2014-04-07 10:51:36 UTC
Task manager showing only items 1 screen is a config option. Was it different in Plasma 1.

The crash and desktop backgrounds is probably fixed by a commit this morning. Can you retest?
Comment 3 Luiz Angelo De Luca 2014-04-08 18:11:28 UTC
Hello David,

The left screen is screen 2, not 1. The panel on screen 2 seems to think that it is still on screen 1. 

Notice that the tasks in the panel are the same on both screen (and only showing tasks from screen 1). The correct on the first screenshot would be to show on the screen 2 task bar only the "task manager settings" in the task bar and not chrome, wine and xterm.

I'll test the crash and bg tomorrow as I'm away from the test env.

I'm using a pre-kde script for screen config. Now I have no problem with multimonitor and plasma panels. Confirming the fix
