This is an excerpt from an executable file (currently 177 lines) I use called "setup" in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/: #xrandr --dpi 108 --output VGA-0 --mode 1440x900 # ati analog #xrandr --dpi 108 --output VGA1 --mode 1440x900 # intel analog #xrandr --dpi 108 --output VGA-1 --mode 1440x900 # nouveau analog
I uncomment whichever of the lines it contains I wish Xorg to use. In ~/.kde4/share/config/kdedrc is autoload=false under [Module-kscreen], which works as expected in KDE4, and it's symlinked to ~/.config/kdedrc. In a fresh installation of TW20150425 with K5, the applicable uncommented line is either being overridden, or disregarded, both by the KDM3 greeter if I boot into graphical, and by startx /usr/bin/startkde when I boot into multi-user or start a Plasma session from KDM3. If I boot into multi-user and just run startx, I get expected results from xrandr in an IceWM session, which is also the results I get from startx /usr/bin/twm and from startx /usr/bin/startkde booted to 13.2 (KDE4), 13.1 (KDE4), Rawhide (K5) and F22 (K5).
If instead of using setup I configure Xorg as desired through /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/, then KDM3 and Plasma both produce expected results.
Is this a new expectation, or breakage, and if breakage, breakage where? Are scripts in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/ no longer being run by default?
FWIW, I always used to use xorg.conf* to configure X, and prefer that method, but the xrandr option has been forced for some configurations by the absence of bug fixes upstream: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39949 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77321
I just noticed that /usr/lib64 contains both libKF5Screen.so.6 and libKF5Screen.so.5.2.2. Can this be right? I had similar misbehavior upgrading Fedora from KDE4 to K5, which failed to remove 4's kscreen, and I fixed by manually removing 4's kscreen rpm. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
