Persistent dual-monitor configuration on KDE4

  • 772

I am using KDE on a laptop with Ubuntu 12.04. In the office I am using an additional monitor for work. When I leave the office, I take my laptop with me.

My issue is that KDE cannot remember my dual-monitor setup the next day.

On Ubuntu Unity this is not an issue. It always remembers the configuration.

Has anybody here found a way to get around this issue? I need it to be persistent so that I don't have to do this each day.

Thanks. :)

EDIT:

Ubuntu - 12.04.3

KDE - 4.12.0

I am using the kubuntu-ppa/backports for Precise.

Note: KDE has System Settings > Display And Monitor > Size And Orientation to handle multiple monitor setup.

    KDE 4.11 has a new module called KScreen. It does what you need.

    But you have on old Ubuntu version. Not sure that you can backport KScreen to your KDE version.

    You should upgrade KDE to version 4.11+
