Hi,

I am using KDE 4.5.2 on OpenSUSE 11.3 x86_64 and what I notice is that whenever
I use a dual display and then reboot the system, during the next login, both
KWin as well as Plasma are crashing very frequently.

The only way to fix this problem is to remove the directory
/var/tmp/kdecache-<username> .



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Get a system with two displays
2. Login to KDE desktop
3. Use systemsettings tool and configure display (side-by-side) on these
displays.
4. Power off your system
5. Disconnect the second monitor
6. Power on your system
7. Login to your KDE desktop once again



Actual Results:  

KWin and Plasma keeps crashing very frequently. 

Expected Results:  

KWin and Plasma should not crash.


I am using a laptop with the LVDS display (left side) and VGA monitor (right
side) connected to it. LVDS resolution is 1366x768 and the VGA resolution is
1280x1024. I have already tried disabling compositing, but the problem still
persists.
