There are other duplicate bug reports, as listed above, but to read them you have to follow the links as their text isn't carried over to here which would be a good thing for clarity. My original bug report had some important details, including that the problem is isolated to one account. Heres what I wrote: "After the system went into standby, when I unlocked the screen one of 2 monitors (the primary one at 4K) is black, no mouse pointer, nothing! Reboot doesn't help. In display settings the monitor is present, but not activated. I find and select it from the drop down list, and can change the resolution, but the refresh rate cannot be selected, and it reads 30Hz with an i (for Info) next to it, I click the i and get "30 Hz is the only resolution this monitor can display" (it can do 60Hz for sure). I log off and log on to a different user account and all is well, both monitors work, and as usual. Conclusion: Something wrong with Plasma settings of that one user account only. Now, for the last week or so (I run updates daily) Plasma has not remembered any window sizes or positions, nor Icon locations after moving on the desktop between reboots. They seem to be stuck in time from when I used them one week ago. Since only one user account is affected it must be related to one or more user specific Plasma display settings related files, and Plasma is not making changes to it/them, but now somehow did, but in a very bad way! Maybe it's a module it uses to record changes, but I cannot tell yet until I logon to the other user account open a few apps resize their windows, move a few Icons around... reboot and see if the changes took, but I don't want it to break too!" Now I add this: Before I shut down, I always close all open windows on all desktops, but now after rebooting some (not all) open again, as if I didn't close them. Although all of these problems may not be related, they all have one thing in common: Plasma is not recording the desktop and displays configurations after suspending monitors, or reboots. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
