Created attachment 132031 [details] Excepted and observed result SUMMARY I have connected second screen to my computer. Always when I close the laptop cover, screen's layout crashes and sets first screen above second after opening. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set sleep mode after closing laptop cover in power settings. 2. Connect additional screen to computer. 3. Configure this screen to extend desktop at right side (KScreen) 4. Close the cover, wait for sleep and open. OBSERVED RESULT See: summary. I think when laptop cover is closing, system thinks that one of screens - build-in or additional is disconnected. EXPECTED RESULT System should remember layout of screens and restore it when they'll be connected again. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 18.04 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.12.9 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.44.0 Qt Version: 5.9.5 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Problem doesn't happen if screen lock is enabled after closing the cover in power settings.
Thank you for the bug report. Unfortunately we were not able to get to it yet. Can we ask you to please check if this is still an issue with Plasma 5.25 or 5.26? If it is, please change the status to CONFIRMED when replying. If not, or if you can't because you no longer use this setup, you can change the status to RESOLVED WORKSFORME. Thanks a lot!

Created attachment 154415 [details] attachment-11659-0.html I have no way to check if this bug still apply to the latest version of KDE Plasma. I don't have latest version, because it's not provided by my GNU/Linux distribution yet. You mark an issue as "resolved", but nobody confirmed it, nobody did a pull request mentioning this issue, so how can you tell it's resolved? Inactivity is not a good sign of problem solved, sometimes bugs keeps unfixed for years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lYgB_NHFYk
Sad but true. The problem really is that multi-monitor bugs can be so random and hardware-specific that it's practically impossible to debug them without having the person who reported the bug available to gather logs, run tests, etc. Ideally that would have been done when you first filed the bug report, but unfortunately it didn't, so here we are. If you no longer use the software or hardware that exhibited the bug, there's no way we can fix it, because none of the people who are in a position to fix it are able to reproduce the issue. I've certainly never encountered something bizarre like what your original screenshot depicts. I am sorry we didn't do a better job two years ago when you originally reported the issue, though.
