Nate's prior advice helped me with windows moving around for a while at least by clearing out the mountain of different display geometry "profiles" that accumulate as kde gyrates during display changes, which in my case is exacerbated by my thunderbolt dock weirdness. My windows were moving about and moving to the 1px width same as you mentioned with every geometry hotplug change, also moving off my 50" display to a 15" laptop 4k display, which became infuriating to find and resize _each_ window when it happened. Clearing the geometry profiles in kde as mentioned helped, where I found 40+ profiles had accumulated. My hypothesis is KDE reels every time there is a change, and creates a profile for _every_ iteration it sees. The problem with my TB dock is it'll periodically glitch, reset my displays, and everything starts bouncing around for a minute or so until it settles. It's an oddity only someone with a TB dock would see, plus like you with the nvidia gpu it makes things even more interesting. I think ultimately it is driving KDE insane in doing so, or at least with so many profiles to choose from, it ends up saving geometry to each, better or worse, and it becomes a role of a dice which it lands on. I've been using Wayland now for some time, and it's even worse than xorg in using the TB docks as every hotplug, the displays all land on different port ID's each time, and with 4x displays (3x on the tb dock) doing that, it becomes a problem for KDE to manage. Literally every glitch changes my displays from (dp-4, dp-5.1, dp-1, dp-5) to (dp-4, dp-5, dp-3, dp-1) and then variably from there. With xorg it would do it occasionally too, but far less prone, and far more deterministic. Wayland is far more variable meaning I have 5 different latte-dock profiles for each display tuple that occurs I have to manually switch between every time my displays rearrange themselves by port-id. This probably needs fixed at the thunderbolt/gpu driver levels that the displayport ports so randomly jumble like that. Certainly anyone else using a usb/thunderbolt adapter devices like that would have similar issues with multiple displays. I've tried with multiple TB docs, they both do the same things. Nate also said this should improve with newer handling to not create the static profiles anymore, so hopefully that helps. These corner cases are all hard to describe, and I'm sure harder for folks to emulate with fairly exotic hardware, but hopefully these reports help the devs understand the nature of the problems to consider when writing these features if they don't have a like hardware configuration to experiment with themselves. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
