On KDE Plasma 5, multihead displays do not work with my hardware (nvidia). The primary display (DVI-0) works, the secondary display (CRT-1) shows only a background and unintentional artifacts from the primary display, such as cursor artifacts. Similar to this bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=158850 But applies to Plasma 5.8.3 with qt 5.6.2 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.startx Actual Results: 2.KDE Plasma 5 starts on primary display, 3. Secondary display shows only a desktop. Mouse can move between displays, but app windows cannot be displayed, and there is no kpanel. Expected Results: 3. Second display should show a desktop, kpanel, and be able to host applicaiton windows. Nvidia settings detects displays correctly, as it did in KDE 4. DVI XRandR shows the following: jesnow@Merckx ~ $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 16384 x 16384 DVI-I-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DVI-I-1
