Minor: "easy workarond"; be irritating when it happens (often) Description of problem: I have 3 identical monitors and 10 desktops: DP-1 DP-0 DP-2 primary I used to have my screens set to never turn off; but a few weeks ago, I changed systemsettings->Energy Saving to turn them off after 20 minutes. After a period of time, usually the next morning, most of my open windows have migrated to DP-1 which is quite aggravating moving them all back to where I like them.Some windows which were spanning DP-0 & DP-2 end up with the portion which was on DP-0 now off-screen to the left of DP-1 Before screens go off: [ DP-1 ][ DP-0 ][ DP-2 ] W1,w2 W3,W4,W5 W6, W7 <-- W6 spanning DP-0 & DP-2 After screens come on: [ DP-1 ][ DP-0 ][ DP-2 ] W1,w2 W3,W4,W5 6, W7 <-- W6 off screen Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Operating System: Mageia 10 KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 Kernel Version: 6.6.18-server-1.mga10 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 20 × 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-12700K Memory: 125.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT Manufacturer: Dell Inc.

This type of bug should be reported upstream at https://bugs.kde.org/ Plasma 6 is new and need probably lot of work to make it more stable and with few bugs.

I'm an end user of Mageia. Going to bugs.kde.org, I'm presented with: Next, you must pick a product on which to enter a bug: and a list of approximately 50 products. That looks more like a place for distro people, not end users to report to... Any suggestion for what product to report this against?
And we are not kde developer so it make it impossible for us to fix such as bug, sorry. I guess plasma-workspace product should be correct.

Thanks for that. Try Wayland rather than X11 for Cauldron Plasma; it is what the KDE people are going for.

Switched to Wayland and haven't seen this since.
@DavidG This is another of several bugs about new Plasma 6 faults which only happen for X11, not with Wayland. How do we close them? We certainly need a general ERRATA entry about this: for Plasma 6, use Wayland. Unless upstream fix them.

These are not really bugs but simply upstream which decide to switch to Wayland by default and probably stop to support X11, same for future lxqt 2.0.0. And we "Mageia" will definitely do the same for mga10.
