Dear Maintainer,

I'm trying out Debian 13 (trixie) KDE and tried to use the default window manage (Wayland). Everything worked on my laptop, but when I plugged in my external monitors I ran into an issue.

The monitors work and display things, but when I bring up the System Settings and try to change their position and orientiation, nothing happens.

It appears that the change takes place on the small GUI display of virtual monitors, but for the real (software) desktop they remain in their old locations - off to the 'right' of my laptop display.

Thanks for your bug report.

There were several fixes in the display stack in the 6.3.5 packages that are now in testing.
Would you mind trying again and reporting back whether you can reproduce the issue ?


Thanks,

This bug has been fixed for me. I cannot confirm why precisely. Shortly after I submitted it I logged out and in a few times, tried X11 and Wayland, etc. and then things started working. There may have been an apt-update in there too. Things are working well.

Since then there have been several apt-updates including one this morning, and I see your names on many of the changlog entries. Thank you for your work on this project.
