Greetings lovely community,
I am rather new to the kubuntu world and would now love to get some advice if possible.
I got the following problem:
everytime I start a software/game which has a resolution smaller than my desktop (i.e. 1920x1080) my desktop kinda 'screws' up afterwards . e.g. when the software had a resolution of 1024x768 my whole desktop changes to that resolution even if i quit the software. When I now change the resolution back to 1920x1080 everything seems to work fine in the first place, but as soon as I start any 3D applications or VM, the graphics are still restricted to the 1024x768 frame in the upper left corner. Or, if that does not happen, then my input devices like mice only work in that frame. It took me a while to find that out but one day when I restarted my system the typical blueish KDE login screen only displayed itself in the 1024 resolution frame, just to change back to normal once the wallpaper was loaded. A check of display settings does display the desired resolution of 1920 tho.
My current workaround to fix the problem is to reset my .KDE folder everytime this happens. Its acceptable and I am glad I found this, but still I would love to find the cause of this issue, or even find something less radical to change my desktop back to normal.
Thank You for reading!
best regards,
