Bug ID: 501527
Summary: kwin selects wrong monitor as active
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.3.3
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: multi-screen
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: nodsc...@icloud.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
After upgrading to an amd gpu my secondary monitor is now active by default. My
mouse gets put get correctly put on the primary Monitor, but remembered apps
are put on the secondary one. Additionally both sddm and kscreenlocker type on
the secondary one (this is especially bad in kscreenlocker because it notices
that it is on the wrong screen when i move the mouse and the password get split
across the monitors).
In tried deleting the kwin output config, but that didn't help. In my testing
it only seems to be dependent on the order the monitors are picked up in. If I
disconnect the primary physically and then reconnect it, kscreenlocker types on
the primary one (but turning it off and on in software has no effect).
I'm not sure if this is a bug with kwin, but since this happens in plasma and
sddm, but not gdm, so that's my guess.
It also happens on a complete clean install.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE (maybe)
1. Connect 2 Monitors
2. Disconnect and reconnect one physically
3. lock screen with shortcut
4. kscreenlocker will type on that screen
OBSERVED RESULT
last connected screen (I think) is active by default
EXPECTED RESULT
primary Monitor (or the monitor where the mouse is) should be active by
default.
