http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=555890 Summary: Dual Head setup using krandrtray + KDE4: monitor arrangement (left of / right of) lost after logoff Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Workspace AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: madworm_de.novell@spitzenpfeil.org QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- --- Comment #0 from robert spitzenpfeil 2009-11-16 19:09:48 UTC --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.4) Gecko/20091016 SUSE/3.5.4-1.1.2 Firefox/3.5.4 I'm glad that configuring a dual head system is now possible in KDE4 with krandrtray. Unfortunately the settings are lost after logoff and redoing it every time has a certain suckiness. I can only make the settings permanent by using sax2, but I've been told elsewhere https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=555882 that this option will go away soon. Apparently it also works on gnome.

Ah, thanks. I didn't noticed. Probably I didn't follow all of the duplicates. Right now this is not a problem for me because I still don't use 11.3 on everyday basis yet, but I hope the issue will be fixed before release :)

At least the bug still appears on this system [1], upgraded from a running openSUSE 11.2 system using zypper dup. On another similar system [2] with the same dual-head screen setup everything work perfectly "out-of-the-box". It *is* possible to setup a dual-head configuration using KRandRTray, but only on the second attempt (every first time after logging in, when the settings are 'applied', nothing happens; the second time it does work). However, these settings do not persist after logging of, or switching users, even when they are made by the root user. After logging off or rebooting the system defaults back to a "Clone of" mode. With Sax2 no longer available for a more permanent solution this has become a major annoyance, especially on a system shared by multiple users. I would argue that this bug deserves more "Importance" than P5, but I will leave this to the KDE maintainers.

Fixed upstream for 4.6.

I guess you are referring to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183143 ? Do you think it would be possible to backport this for OS 11.3 (so KDE 4.4.X)?

The stable NVIDIA driver (295.xx) doesn't support RANDR >= 1.2 yet. They just added it to the beta driver (302.xx). So the situation is going to improve soon. :-)

IIRC a permanent configuration can be done by starting the nvidia-settings tool as user root, so it can write xorg.conf file.

It is almost impossible to configure monitors as root, since after you did the choice and click "apply", the monitors doesn't display correctly anymore. I tried to click "accept configuration", and then logged out, logged in again as root, the configuration isn't saved, both monitors display the same. Which xorg.conf file should be changed? /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-monitor.conf ? Can you attach an example please? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Which means that such a setup doesn't work with your graphics card.

Sure we don't want to save a non-working setup.

NVIDIA's Twinview configuration isn't that simple. Apparently you have a driver problem, which cannot be resolved via a configuration file. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
