Bug ID: 484661
Summary: repeated appearance of screen switching pop up with
nothing being plugged in
Classification: Plasma
Product: KScreen
Version: 6.0.2
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: OSD and Plasma applet
Assignee: kscreen-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: nuff...@yahoo.com
Target Milestone: ---
***
The screen switching applet/pop up (where is provides switch to
extrernal/switch to laptop/extend left etc. etc. keeps appearing every few
seconds. Nothing is being plugged into any of the video ports. This mostly
happens when the laptop (HP DV6 1382ea) is on battery power. It rarely happens
(but has a couple of times) on AC power.
I had this same bug on Plasma 5 on both Solus, Arch based and Opensuse
Tumbleweed where the resolution was to disable Kscreen2 in the background
services section of System Settings.

SUMMARY
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. power on laptop with no external monitors attached
2. unplug AC power to leave on battery power
3. do nothing else
OBSERVED RESULT
Screen switcher pop up appears. If any option is selected nothing happens. The
pop up reappears anywhere between 1 sec. and 15sec. later
EXPECTED RESULT
no screen switcher pop up unless a monitor is plugged into a video port.
