SUMMARY I have 2 Dell monitors, "kscreen-doctor -o" gives following output for me: Output: 1 Dell Inc. DELL P4317Q/V7M4J83D02SL enabled connected ...... Output: 2 Dell Inc. DELL U2412M/0FFXD2CM344L enabled connected ..... Output name contains a "." character in it, so I can't change any output option with kscreen-doctor. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Try to change output property for an output which has a "." in it's name. OBSERVED RESULT $> kscreen-doctor output."Dell Inc. DELL P4317Q/V7M4J83D02SL".position.0,0 kscreen.kwayland: Loading Wayland backend. Unable to parse output id: Dell Inc EXPECTED RESULT kscreen-doctor should parse outputs which has "." in it's name.
