           Summary: Wish/Feature request: Way to order displays in
                    dual-head
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: dualhead
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: thoth at leapdragon.net


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.3) 
OS:                Linux

System Settings -> Desktop does not appear to offer a way to specify which
display is on the "left" and which is on the "right," meaning that the user
must physically move the displays to match KDE's assumptions rather than
vice-versa.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect two monitors, boot.
2. Log into KDE.
3. Start System Settings -> Display.

Actual Results:  
System Settings -> Display offers a way to select which display is on the
"left" and which display is on the "right," with settings remembered across
logout/login cycle.

Expected Results:  
No such setting is found.

Partial workaround: Call xrandr before loading KDE. For example, using
$HOME/.xession that contains:

xrandr --output LVDS --right-of DVI-0
startkde
