hi!
after updating linux kernels a while ago (previously 7.0.13), i’ve been experiencing a weird bug in plasma where my second monitor is cropped, specifically to the top-left quadrant, and pinned to the bottom right of the physical display.
intended (and currently how a full-screen screenshot displays):
actual (what i see on my monitors):
this does not occur in SDDM or GRUB, and my mouse cursor can still appear in the void area (albeit remapped to the relative location on the plasma desktop itself), so i have to assume this issue is plasma-specific.
i haven’t made any configuration changes, and booting into kernel 7.0.13 seems to correct the issue for now. this all happened after a system update which fetched the new kernel (among many other package updates, i presume)
some system specs if it’s at all helpful:
- OS: Fedora Linux 44
- Plasma Version: 6.7.2
- KDE Frameworks Version: 6.27.0
- Kernel Version: 7.1.3-200.fc44
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600G
- GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060Ti
appreciate any help in advance! happy to mark this as a bug if deemed necessary, but i have a strange feeling this could be a latent configuration issue that’s only cropped up now, and can be repaired with user intervention.
