           Summary: KDE 4.2 RC1, Multiple monitors, X-server restarts when
                    turning off laptop monitor
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: linuxfever at yahoo.gr


Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I updated to KDE 4.2 RC1 two days ago. I have two problems which I did not have
in KDE 4.2 Beta2.

I have a laptop (1440x900), intel 945GM, connected to an external monitor
(1680x1050). When I log in to KDE I get 1440x900 for both monitors. 

I was able to correct that by switching off the laptop monitor, either using
xrandr or the system-settings, and then selection the high resolution.

However, now, I cannot set the external monitor's resolution any higher than
1440x900. It only accepts the 1440x900 setting. Moreover, when I turn off the
laptop's monitor X-server restarts and takes me back to the log-in screen.

I did not have any of these problems with KDE 4.2 Beta2...please let me know if
you need anything else. Thanks!
