            Bug ID: 448336
           Summary: Monitor Not Showing Login Screen & Fonts Don't Display
                    Properly if Monitor is Turned on after PC
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Manjaro

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports

If the monitor is powered on after the PC is already turned on, the monitor
doesn't receive a signal until the user is logged in (until this time, it shows
a black screen). When the user does log in, the system font displays too small
(possibly because it uses some kind of default value, rather than the value
that should be used for my monitor's resolution).
This issue is resolved by turning on the monitor before powering on the PC, or
restarting the PC once this issue has been noticed.

***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Turn on PC.
2. Turn on monitor once the PC has already reached the login screen. (Monitor
won't display an image)
3. Login. (Fonts are too small.)

OBSERVED RESULT

The monitor receives no signal until the user is logged in. Once logged in, the
monitor displays the screen, but the font is too small.

EXPECTED RESULT

The monitor would show the login screen. Once logged in, the fonts would be the
appropriate size.

Here are a couple screenshots of the font rendering issue (unfortunately, I
cannot take a screenshot of the monitor refusing to turn on until the user logs
in): https://imgur.com/a/1wPvs9x
