hi,
after updating today could not get kde to work and found
Aya Desktop Theme the culprit, ok after
-System Settings --Desktop Theme set to Air or Breeze
how can duel monitors be setup?
only Compositor found in
-System Settings --Hardware —Display and Monitor
what’s missing?
any help appreciated
everything else appears ok
There are more display settings under Workspace > Desktop Behavior
hi,
Some notes,
kdm can still be setup via
-systemsettings (not systemsettings5)
–Login Screen
screens can be setup via
-systemsettings (not systemsettings5)
–Display and Monitor
—Display Configuration
but system stability is questionable
and settings do not survive a reboot
for 2.) above its assumed an update for systemsettings5
is in the pipeline
Correct.
- screens can be setup via
-systemsettings (not systemsettings5)
–Display and Monitor
—Display Configuration
But not for Plasma5.
You have to use systemsettings5 for that.
I don’t know whether kscreen5 migrates the settings from the KDE4 version…
but system stability is questionable
and settings do not survive a reboot
The latter is probably because you used KDE4’s systemsettings.
For the former, Plasma5 should be stable, unless there’s some graphics driver problem…
for 2.) above its assumed an update for systemsettings5
is in the pipeline
Well, the “fix” that’s in the pipeline is to rename systemsettings5 to “Configure Desktop” as well.
I’m not quite sure whether that helps with the original problem or confusion though.
wolfi323 thx,
for whatever reason kscreen5 was not installed!
it is now and all monitors are working as before
That fixed it for me too. Run “system settings” (5.3) not the old “Configure Desktop” (4.11.x), since both configurations are installed, you just need to use the newer version. 
Ah.
That package is only recommended, not required.
Two days a strict requirement has been added to plasma5-workspace though, so not having it installed will not be possible in the future.
