    [Monitors] A problem with a projector connected via VGA port and kubuntu 19.10

    Hello.

    Kubuntu 19.10+ backports PPA, all-in-one PC

    inxi output
    https://pastebin.com/Ajpnq14J

    What happens:

    1) I boot up my PC
    2) Turn on my projector
    3) Kubuntu gets loaded.
    4) When I click on, for instance, Dolphin or System settings they all open up on the second display, not the main one.

    I have to move my mouse beyond my main desktop and drag it all to the main display.

    Display settings:

    Display 0 (the main on) -

    - Enabled
    - Set as the main one
    - Synchronization is disabled

    Display 1 (projector)

    -enabled
    -sync disabled
    - not the main one

    On the image above Display settings two displays touch each other. I tried breaking them apart but it caused another problem. When they are apart and I open Dolphin or whatever it gets partially visible on both displays.

    Thanx in advance.

    I've found a fix.

    I used xrandr sh script and added it to autostart...

    What I don't understand is why I'm forced to use this workaround... It should work out of the box.

    Cheers.
