Bug Description
Kscreen does not allow you clone or mirror multiple monitors. The closest way is to make both displays the same resolution, then drag them over each other. They don't snap internally, so often I'm off by a few pixels.
Previously, kde-workspace-randr allowed you to do this by ticking "Unify outputs", but this package is not currently in the default installation of Kubuntu 13.04 (KDE 4.10.5).
Preferably, kscreen should include this option, as it seems that kscreen is better in every other way, but lacks this functionality.
(Alternatively kde-workspace-randr could be installed by default.)

Hi there!
Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https:/ /bugs.kde. org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.
Thanks!
