Description Paul Smith 2009-06-10 19:10:17 UTC
When I change the display settings, these do not persist after a logout.

Comment 1 Rex Dieter 2009-06-12 12:44:39 UTC
How are you changing it?

system-config-display? other?  (The former is preferred, recommended).

Comment 2 Kevin Kofler 2009-06-12 14:03:35 UTC
This has nothing to do with kde-settings (which are our default settings for KDE). If the settings you set in System Settings (is that where you're setting them?) are not getting remembered, that's a kdebase-workspace issue.

Comment 3 Paul Smith 2009-06-12 15:17:57 UTC
Thanks, Rex and Kevin. I did the settings in System Settings, but these settings were not remembered. After Rex's comment, I installed system-config-display, which was not installed, and I configured my display with it. This procedure eliminated the reported problem. Now, I have everything working as expected.

I do not know why system-config-display was not installed by default.
