Bug Description

I have 3 screens, all Neovo F-417's.

One pc has 1 of those screens.
kde-guidance shows these settings:

plug 'n' play
Horiz. : 24-80
Vert. : 49-75

The other pc has xinerama. Kde-guidance detects these settings for the screens:

plug 'n' play
Horiz. : 28.0-33.0
Vert. : 43-72

Although they're 3 identical screens.
The xinerama screens have a virtual desktop that is bigger than the actual screen so that moving the mouse to the edge of the screen shifts the desktop.

Anything i can provide to get this fixed?

Thanks a lot!

ok. Just to get it clear. You've got two computers. One with a 1 F-417 and the other with 2 F-417s in a xinerama setup? Which plug'n'play value match which computers? (and screens? screen order is important by the way.)

yes, that is correct.

pc with single screen has
Horiz. : 24-80
Vert. : 49-75

pc with dual screens have:
Horiz. : 28.0-33.0
Vert. : 43-72
( both screens identically detected )

What do you mean about screens? what exactly do you need to know?

The second screen was "dual screen", not "clone primary screen", and the primary screen was at the right.
