If a KDE session is started connected to multiple monitors (internal 1920x1200, two external 2048x1152), desktop components are in general very big, but the taskbar buttons text is very small. The problem does not exist if the session is started with only the laptop internal LVDS, and the other monitors are attached afterwards. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. With machine shut down, connect multiple monitors 2. Start machine and login to KDE Actual Results: The desktop icons, tray notifications, plasma-nm, etc are all oversized. The taskbar buttons text is undersized to the point of being unreadable. Expected Results: Maintain correct sizing on all widgets Running on a Lenovo W530 (NVidia proprietary driver), external monitors connected to a docking station. Running a triple head setup with internal LVDS panel at 1920x1200, two VGA panels at 2048x1152 each.

Problem disappears if fonts are forced to 142 DPI in "kcmshell5 fonts", so the problem seems to be in DPI detection. xrandr outputs correct information on screen sizes in millimeters, xdpyinfo is way off: screen #0: dimensions: 6016x1152 pixels (1068x203 millimeters) resolution: 143x144 dots per inch The actual DPI i'm forcing is 142, so it's not that far off from the detected one, but somehow it still gets all mangled if not forced to a DPI setting.
Can I see: - your plasma version - your Qt version - output of running "env" on a console. Then reopen this bug
- Plasma 5.7.5 (Fedora plasma-desktop-5.7.5-1.fc23.x86_64) - Qt 4.8.7 (Fedora qt-4.8.7-18.fc23.x86_64)

Reopening (i think, not sure which option to choose to reopen)
>- Qt 4.8.7 (Fedora qt-4.8.7-18.fc23.x86_64) You probably have a Qt4 and a Qt5 installed. I needed the Qt5 version. Do you still have this issue? Can I also have your xrdb -q if so?
fyi, fedora 23 shipped qt5-qtbase-5.6.2-1.fc23 back then (though old and unsupported now)
