SUMMARY since update to 5.17.0 my dual monitor setup reset. Normally it look like -| (main monitor horizontal on the left, secondary vertical on the right, The horizontal is in the middle of the vertical.) It reset to a configuration with the monitor in a _| configuration. if I try to slide the scondary monitor down, as original, and apply the conf, the secondary monitor goes black (maouse pointer is still visible), and the screen configuration windows goes in that screen (i can still drag it back by right click on the Task Manager and selecting "move"), and also the conf displayed goes back to _|. As workaround i found it works if i leave some space between the two monitor instead of letting them snap together.
part of 3 bug report: 413326 413328 413329
fixed by deleting the kscreen folder under ~/.local/share; looks like even if I enable/disable the monitors and change the conf, something broken get carried over. I think proper fix should be to find the problematic configuration and get rid of it at load time
Not really fixed; looks like sometimes (every reboot? every minor update?) it breaks again.
