           Summary: kde startup breaks XRandR setup
           Product: kdelibs
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian testing
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdelibs-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: apaku gmx de


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

After switching from Xinerama/Xorg 7.2 to XRandR/Xorg 7.3 for a multi-head setup KDE \
broke the working XRandR setup when I ran startkde. The problem is the \
randr-configuration thats stored in startupconfig and has hardcoded values for the \
screens and their positions. Then during startkde these values are read and set via \
xrandr and this breaks if something changed in the setup and the user doesn't get \
notified at all.

In my case the kde startup just disabled the 2nd head.
