Package: kde
Version: kde-plasma-desktop
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I am using KDE on a Debian mixed testing/buster system. Until recently,
plugging / unplugging the HDMI cable, or pressing Fn+F8(display) on my laptop
keyboard, would pop up the switch displays pop up and allow me to choose how to
use an external monitor.
Recently this has stopped happening. Instead Debian assumes that i want to
stretch the display across both monitors (which is not what I want to do). I
have to force mirroring of displays using 'xrandr' in my .profile, choose my
external monitor as the Primary Screen from Displays, and then manually restart
plasmashell in order to get a full desktop.
The shortcut combination in Global Shortcuts (Meta+P) also has no effect. I
tried changing the shortcut to another combination, still no effect.
Thank you for all your hard work!
