Yes, I got you. That's true, this is not a solution, but was a way to get rid of it while it was not fixed yet. Better than always have to kill something to have my dual monitor working after every boot. Just a quick walk around. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I am running Arch linux with the last versions of plasma and I am with the same issue.. When logging into my system, my second screen is black and right clicking doesn't work. But after running "kquitapp plasmashell && kstart plasmashell" both my screen are reloaded and I can go back to my work.. So far I am running this "fix" everytime I log into my system. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353975 --- Comment #57 from Marcelo Rocha --- How come? I mean, I never really tried to read a lot about it but I always though you would not need to unninstall your driver since all the new drivers comes with mode setting by default. That is, for example, from Arch Linux wiki: Late KMS start Intel, Nouveau, ATI and AMDGPU drivers already enable KMS automatically for all chipsets, so you need not install it manually.
