kscreen-doctor -o reports: Output: 446 DP-0.8 enabled connected DisplayPort etc. However, when I attempt to use DP-0.8 as a parameter to kscreen-doctor, it results in an error: Unable to parse argumentsoutput.DP-0.8.enable escaping the dot with a backslash or quoting the name does not resolve the error. I'm not sure if this is a bug. My guess is that screen names that include dots are possibly not expected and are not handled properly.
Hi, does xrandr report the same connector name? kscreen-doctor simply doesn't handle "." in connector names, so this is indeed a bug, the question is how to work around it - maybe there could be an alternative separator for the commands (instead of the ".").

Yes, xrandr reports the screen as "DP-0.8". It is a relatively new Dell monitor and the GPU is a relatively new nvidia card. If you need more info, please let me know. Thank you.
