            Bug ID: 361799
           Summary: Crashes/visual curruption/lost windows on HIGH-dpi
                    (4k) scaled multiscreen
           Product: kwin
           Version: 5.5.4
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: xrandr
          Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: hawk...@tiscali.it

When using the fixDisplay.sh script I get a working extended desktop on my
laptop's HDMI-attached external screen. The three (related ?) problems I get
are:

As soon as I run the script I (sometimes)  in one random case of the following:
1) end up with an Xorg crash (problem1)
2) end up with some of the open windows disappearing (not on any
display/desktop/activity), but the processes are still running and it is still
possible to list the x window ID
3) kwin works ok for a while (problem2)

While kwin is working I get reversible and temporary visual corruptions
(expecially in konsole) while scrolling.

I have a patched Xorg  xorg-server-1.17.2 (because of a bug related to randr
and scaling)

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run the patched xorg (not sure this prerequisite is ncessary)
2. attach a secondary screen
3. run the script

Actual Results:  
crash/corruption/visual problems

Expected Results:  
The external screen should just work after just running xrandr, without the
need to kill kwin and kwin should not present the described problems.
